2015JuneAfter learning of being BRCA 2 positive, and a very dense history of cancer, I made the choice to undergo a series of elective preventative surgeries to minimize my chances of cancer, starting with an oophorectomy (removal of fallopian tubes and ovaries, which sent me straight into menopause at 39).
2017September
On January 5, 2018, I underwent a prophylactic bilateral mastectomy, the first of three to five surgeries to remove my breasts, surrounding tissue and reconstruct. It has been challenging, painful, breathtaking, and amazing all at the same time and I am right in the middle of it all and not yet out the other side. Wow – what a journey!
I navigated the most intense, traumatic year of my life. The unbelievable support from those closest to me was incredible and I truly learned the depth of my own strength and resilience and the many, many gifts and insights that come alongside life’s biggest challenges. I am unbelievably grateful for the blessing of our daughter.
2023 LIFE IS FREAKING AWESOME!!

LOVING IT!
