My SIL, Sara Moore, gave me my pendant. She was so kind throughout my treatment, checking in on me often. For me, this pendant represents the overwhelming amount of support that I received. Sara and many others reached out, on numerous occasions, wanting to help. I was diagnosed with stage II breast cancer in late 2021. Proceeding my diagnosis I had a double mastectomy, 4 months of chemotherapy, 2 months of radiation, and reconstructive surgery. This is the hardest thing I ever done, but I really do believe it made me stronger. It also made me so much more appreciative of the friends and family in my life. I really don’t think I could’ve gotten through it without them. One of my best friends from California, Angie, texted me every single day. Even if just to say “good morning”. My heart swells when I think of the love I received. I’m passing this pendant on to Kelly Miller. She was recently diagnosed with stage II breast cancer and has a similar treatment plan, as me, ahead of her. I give her this pendant with the hope that she finds all the support she needs. I hope it serves as a reminder that she will get through this and there is light at the end of the tunnel.
