Chris’s Story (Melanoma, Breast Cancer)

I was diagnosed with stage three melanoma in my twenties and spent twenty plus years chasing it around my body.

Over the last year, I have had three courses of chemo, a bilateral mastectomy and radiation. I stand with my warrior sisters and fight like a girl!
