This fight would be different because I had God leading me

SEVEN medical professionals told me to terminate my pregnancy. WE refused.

April comes around and I’m sitting in this dressing room with a gown on to get my breast checked out. I’m scared at this point.

When I was 28, I found out my aunt had breast cancer and I learned about something called the BRCA1 genetic mutation.

Normally, I am pro “do whatever you want with your body,” but for this topic, I’m so biased to my personal opinion that preventative is the answer.

Making such permanent decisions, especially in your twenties, can be overwhelming and scary.

My doctors never mentioned I was high risk because my mother received her initial diagnosis in her late fifties.

When you get cancer you think your life is over but for me my life has begun. I have cancer cancer doesn’t have me!
