I have had many friends tell me that my story and my diagnosis has started a conversation between them and their loved ones. Men are talking to their wives, girlfriends are sharing my blog and talking to their friends about my story and women are talking to men about the possibility of men getting breast cancer (many people thinks it only happens to women which is not the case). Being that I have many friends that are under 40, many young ladies haven't yet had conversations with their OBGYN about prevention or detection. More importantly the OBGYNs aren't talking about it with their patients (they didn't with me and I asked what I needed to do differently in my 30's, before I turned 30).
Conversations are starting to happen as you all share my story.... I feel so blessed and so lucky to share my journey with you, hoping I will change by bringing awareness to young women and the diagnosis of cancer.
Thank you for your love and continued support!
