I am stronger than I ever believed I was and I won’t ever break
I want the world to know that I am living with this, but it isn’t my entire identity.

I want the world to know that I am living with this, but it isn’t my entire identity.
I’ve had a good life and while it’s not going to be as long as I hoped, it’s still going to be significant.
Knowing that I may never ring the bell again, I still consider myself a survivor!
I spent my first cancer-free year insulating myself from all things related to recurrence and MBC and you know what happened?
As a woman of color, I know that it’s a table that our communities have been traditionally omitted from. But with the overall goal to advance our understanding of cancer across the board, it is imperative that everyone is both included in the conversation, and also empowered to own a piece of this process.
Your voice, your story, and your support can make a difference. Join For the Breast of Us in our mission to empower, support, and advocate for women of color across the globe. Together, we can create a future where every woman has the resources and support she needs to overcome breast cancer.
