Women should no longer be dying of breast cancer and I am doing my best to make to make that a reality.
In 2006, at age 41, I learned I had breast cancer. I joined approximately 2.5 million women in the United States who are breast cancer survivors. The treatment choices offered for early stage breast cancer, multi focal DCIS, shocked me. Having my breasts removed as one of the treatment options surprised me the most.
I have spent many hours researching breast cancer and I am trying to spread information regarding early detection and prevention to as many ladies as possible. Early detection may save your life but not necessarily your breasts.
I had bilateral mastectomies and reconstruction in September of 2006 and I am doing great.
