I have survived breast cancer twice, all before turning 42.
I was diagnosed at 30 with stage 3 breast cancer, and again at 41 with stage 1 breast cancer.
I recently had a double radical mastectomy, and now I am having breast reconstruction.
My theory is this: “Anyone can give up, it’s the easiest thing in the world to do, but to hold it together when everyone would expect you to fall apart, that is true strength.”
