12 Products to Shop That Support Breast Cancer Awareness Month
Breast Cancer Diagnosis
I got the call on a Monday. On August 1, 2016, it was a beautiful, sunny morning. I was in my office in a business meeting with my faithful Shiba Inu pup sleeping by my feet. The radiologist told me the results of my biopsy were positive and…. I couldn’t tell you what she said after that. Her voice drifted into the background of my head. Similar to the voices of adults in classic Charlie Brown television specials: “Wa wa wa….”
Breast Cancer Survivor
As we enter October and Breast Cancer Awareness month, it’s impossible for me not to reflect on that day. It’s true what they say—that life literally changes in a second. It did for me. Given that one in eight women in this country will develop breast cancer at some point in her life, we all know someone who has had breast cancer. But you never expect to be one of the eight. I had unwillingly been initiated into an exclusive club of survivors. And to add insult to injury, at the time, I hated the color pink!
The good news is, I believe everything in life happens for us to learn from and also to grow stronger. After going through a bilateral mastectomy followed by the months-long process of reconstructive surgery, I’m clean and healthy. Through the entire ordeal, I learned a lot about myself, what my real priorities are, who my true friends are, and what it means to be loved. I’ve also learned that it’s ok to be imperfect. That’s a subject Erin recently tackled so beautifully in her powerful video here.
