When I was diagnosed with Stage Two Breast Cancer six months ago nothing could have been more shocking. I felt the lump and the next day visited my family physician. I was told not to worry because I have no family history and I had just turned twenty-two a month ago. Two weeks later I was given life altering news. I recently finished a very intense six rounds of chemotherapy and I am on my way to having a normal life back. Let my story ring through the back of your mind. Always know your body, and listen to it. Doubting anything in my case, could have meant a later diagnosis and smaller chance of survival.
