My grandmother died from breast cancer with mets to her lungs and brain in 1974. I was only 10 months old and do not remember her, but have lots of pictures of her holding me. Even though, I did not get to know her, I feel very close to her and feel like she has always been with me. I realized she has been my guardian angel when I was 22 and had a very close call in a car accident. Of course, time slowed down during the wreck, but I felt so comforted and had a vision that she was sitting behind me with her arms around me holding me in my seat. I didn't receive one scratch during the wreck and I know she was there keeping me safe! I will never forget that moment when I realized she has been with me, protecting me from harm all of my life. That is why I am a huge supporter of breast cancer as she is still with me, reminding me to do my monthly breast exams. I am a Registered Nurse and spend extra time and effort in teaching breast health to patients, friends and family.
