Since my diagnosis, I have been very careful about the information I access and consider when making decisions regarding my treatment. I rely on my medical team and the BCNA website and network. I am particularly cautious about statements made by celebrities, as their intentions are often unclear to me. However, I empathize with all women diagnosed with breast cancer, regardless of their social status or the treatment they choose.
