Well, hello there!
Mackenzie here! I’m currently taking a break. But if you’re looking for resources for Previvors, Thrivers, Survivors, or Caregivers in the cancer community check out organizations like The Breasties, For the Breast of Us, and AnaOno.
In December 2016 my motivation and direction changed a bit as I received BRCA1+ results from genetic testing. I lost my Mother to triple negative breast cancer in 2014 and have a family history, so I chose genetic testing. Since I have spent my time in doctor’s offices, had a prophylactic bilateral mastectomy and DIEP flap reconstruction. I chose preventative surgery in order to take my 87% chance of breast cancer down to a 2%.
Follow along my journey, from everyday life experiences to some of those harder life choices, it’ll promise to stay interesting.
