I am now one of the 15,000!
Greetings to all,
I will be standing on the MCG at Field of Women on 10 May 2014!
The reason I am standing, is that I am now one of the 15,000 women who will be diagnosed with breast cancer this year!
I have recently joined a club (age 42), that I never thought I'd be in. I am still recovering from a mastectomy and awaiting final reconstruction.
My fantastic husband will also be attending to support me and together we will be standing to support others diagnosed before and after me. We will remember that I am one of the lucky ones and many are not as fortunate.
The "My Journey Kit" I received from BCNA has proved to be an invaluable resource guide for myself and my entire family. It is such a wonderful kit and I am thrilled to be able to support this fantastic day to ensure future patients have access to this too.
We are looking forward to May 10 and all of the emotions that will come with this experience.
Keep up the wonderful work!!
Best wishes
Justine
