When I was 30 I felt a painful lump in my breast. I blew it off thinking I was too young for it to be serious, probably just another cyst. My grandma just survived breast cancer 2 yrs prior and I had lost my mother just months before to ovarian cancer. At 31 with a 2 yr old son I was diagnosed with breast cancer and underwent a double mastectomy. We do NOT carry the gene. 3 surgeries and 8 months later I found out I was pregnant... Now I am due in June with my daughter. When I was diagnosed I thought I would share my moms fate and I couldn't imagine life with the scars. Boy was I wrong, so much life to still live and give. Stay strong and check ourself. Never stop fighting!!
