Jennifer’s Story

Site created on June 22, 2018

It was just a matter of time that one of my 6 month mammograms/ultrasounds would show something suspicious enough to warrant a biopsy. I have been going religiously since my mom was diagnosed 15 years ago. Luckily, in November of 2017, all I heard after the mammogram was, “Looks good, no need for an ultrasound today. See you in 6 months.” Fast forward 7 months (life gets busy), and I did not get that send off. Rather, after ultrasounds and needle core biopsy of a suspicious looking mass, I got the news that I have breast cancer. Invasive Ductal Carcinoma. Just under 1 centimeter, very small and slow growing. Positive for estrogen and progesterone, negative for HER. So, I called my brother, CJ, and told him I was joining him in the fight against cancer and that we would both kick cancers ass! . #warriormode #SgroStrong

Journal entry by Megan Horrar

Jenn wanted to share with all of her prayer warriors that she is home and resting after a very successful surgery today.  Everything went smoothly and on time, starting very early with a 5:40am arrival time, as she was Dr. Hill's first patient of the day. Mark, caretaker extraordinaire, was able to take Jenn home early afternoon to rest and heal.  Jenn is not feeling any pain in her chest tonight at all. 😊  She is a bit sore from the "grafting" procedure, but hopeful that it will not be uncomfortable for very long.  

Jenn still hopes to walk on Saturday for the Race For The Cure Lexington with her team, "Jenn's Warriors".  (There is still time to make a donation if you would like to and are able to help out. Donate to Jenn's Warriors Team )

Thank you again, as always, for all your help, meals, donations, love, prayers and support.
Love & Peace!  No one fights alone!  God is Good!  ❤️🙏🏼  #warriormode #sgrostrong
