Welcome to our CaringBridge website. I am using it to keep family and friends updated in one place. I also wanted to share information for other women who have a secondary breast cancer diagnosis. Following DCIS diagnosis and bilateral mastectomy in 2019, I was told no further treatment was necessary. However, in 2021 I was diagnosed with a "new" breast cancer (HER2+, ILC) found on the skin. I was told it was like being struck by lightning twice. I hope sharing my story will help others. Thank you for visiting.
