Young With Breast Cancer

"I am confident in my team of doctors and the care plan that they have come up with to keep me and my growing baby as safe and healthy as possible through all of this. But I still find myself scared when I allow myself to think too far into the future."

"My journey has taught me the value of advocacy and support for young adults with cancer, and I am committed to helping others navigate their journeys through similar challenges."

"I just wanted to believe it couldn’t be cancer. I wanted to believe it was breastfeeding causing the changes to my breasts. I wanted to believe that breast cancer couldn’t happen to someone who was only 32."

"During my battle with breast cancer, it was the stories of other survivors that kept me fighting towards the finish line."

"The doctors both reassured me that the chemo drug is not harmful to my baby and if I don't start it now the cancer is at risk of spreading further."

"I also realize now that what I thought was a death sentence was really a life sentence. In the best possible way. "

"My life changed. I don’t take any days for granted. I live to be healthy. I live to help others."
