Campaign Story
While getting out of the shower one morning, I noticed a change in the shape of my right breast. I had completed my mammogram and had seen my physician for my clinical exam 6 months prior. There were no unusual findings. I completed my monthly Breast Self Exam the week before which also appeared to be “normal.” But, looking at my breast at that moment, I knew something was clearly wrong.
I saw my physician who referred me to Breastlink. Following the Clinical Exam, ultrasound and biopsy, the words came, “you have cancer.” I had Invasive Lobular Cancer. Fifteen percent of breast cancers are of this type, and often does not show up on mammogram, does not present with a lump and therefore is frequently more advanced when diagnosed.
With our family, friends, church and community rallying around us once again, my sons’ and my world immediately headed into another tailspin. I was introduced to Michael Ann, a breast cancer survivor and volunteer with Breastlink. I was in awe of her strength and so appreciative of her support and time. It was so helpful to talk to someone who walked this path before me.
