Three years cancer-free today

Me, happily 3 years cancer-free

3 years ago today I had the surgery that eradicated cancer from my body — a bilateral mastectomy with reconstruction. I had my annual checkup with my brilliant surgeon, Dr. Freya Schnabel at Perlmutter Cancer Center — part of NYU Langone Health, today and I’m happily NED — no evidence of disease. Forever grateful and enjoying my life and health to the max! Thank you to everyone who’s been in the trenches with me and helped me up and over this mountain. So happy to pay it forward and help others on their journey.
