“You’re looking at somebody who’s had cancer. Breast cancer. When the doctor first told me, I came unglued. That just hit me like nothing I’ve ever experienced.

“He told me, ‘We may have to cut your breasts off.’ I said, ‘What? No you’re not.’ I ended up having three surgeries. They removed the cancer and the lymph nodes, but I kept my breasts.

“Then they wanted me to take chemo and I looked at them and said, ‘I don’t think so.’ I was scared, you know? I didn’t want my hair falling out. I didn’t want to have to wear a wig.

“So I went through radiation instead. I’ve been going to all my appointments like I’m supposed to and everything is as clear as can be now. I’m in remission. They can’t believe how well I’m doing.”
