|
I was diagnosed with breast cancer (triple negative invasive ductal carcinoma) when I was 31 years old on Decemeber 27th, 2023. I felt like my life was turned upside down and time became frozen. And it was. I had to leave my job which I loved, avoided seeing friends and family since I was immunicompromised and felt that I was in this dark cancer corner where no one could reach me. I had to go through 16 rounds of chemotherapy, rounds of immunotherapy, and multiple surgeries. I continue to receive immunotherapy. I felt like I lost who I was. I lost my hair, my eyebrows, I could barely get out of bed and I did not notice the person looking back at me in the mirror anymore. It was and continues to be a very hard time in my life.
I am proud and happy to say that I have had a complete response to treatment and am slowly healing. I not only am trying to heal physically but trying to heal mentally and emotionally. But I know it will take time. I am also happy to say I am back at work and trying to get back to my normal life although I know that having breast cancer and this experience has changed me forever. But regardless, I know I am still me at the core and I want to help in any way I can.
Cancer not only changed my life forever, it affected the people that I love - my friends and family. We hope to raise money to find a cure for this horrible disease so no one has to go through what me and my loved ones went through.
The funds we raising will sustain critical research and provide services for people trying to cope with their breast cancer experience. Believe us, every dollar really does count, so we are asking you to please donate today. Thank you so much.
