Susan’s Story

Site created on August 1, 2018

#2 is our #1!


Susan was diagnosed with breast cancer July 2018. She will have chemotheraphy treatment for the next five months beginning August 7.  In early January, she will have a double mastectomy. The type of cancer Susan has is aggressive - but they've caught it early. The other great news is this type of cancer has a low recurrence rate.
