“I was still nursing my daughter when I found a lump in my armpit and the doctor decided to do a biopsy. I’ll never forget the phone call telling me I had cancer. You just don’t expect it to happen to you. Surgery, chemo, and radiation followed, and of course my hair began falling out in clumps. When the time came to shave my head, our whole family did it together. Once I was bald, I decided to get a henna artist to create a design on my head: a cross with flowers. It looked great. Then, instead of remarks like, ‘Oh, you poor girl!’, people came up to say, ‘Oh wow! That is so cool!’ It was a way to add beauty to the craziness. I'm a 5 year survivor now!”
