- Hi Vicky. Based on your test results, I am sorry to inform you that you have breast cancer.
- Diapositiva: 3
- There's no way. I'm dying of a stroke, not breast cancer!
- Diapositiva: 4
- Considering Vicky's family history, she always thought her greatest health risk was a stroke.
- We thought only one of your breasts was cancerous, but we have found cancer in both.
- Oh wow...
- Diapositiva: 5
- Then, Vicky was diagnosed with breast cancer.
- To get specific, Vicky was diagnosed with triple positive breast cancer.
- This is estrogen-receptor-positive, progesterone-receptor positive- and HER2 positive.

- Okay I'll give it a try.

- At first, Vicky wanted to remain in her bed during chemotherapy treatments and watch TV.
- Wow! I really do feel better if I move around during my treatment. It makes me feel like I have more control of my cancer.

- Then, a friend of Vicky encouraged her to be active during her treatment.

- Diapositiva: 13
- Although Vicky didn't like this suggestion at first...
- I love my breast reconstruction. I am feeling better than ever!
- Diapositiva: 14
- Vicky learned that her friend was correct!
- Diapositiva: 15
- Eventually, Vicky's cancer had progressed and she had to get a double mastectomy, which took a toll on her self confidence.

- However, Vicky got a breast reconstruction with silicone implants, which lifted her confidence right back up!
- I love my support group! They make me feel so seen and also teach me so much. I am an informed patient because of them.

- Now, Vicky is cancer free! Her biggest goal is to remain cancer free, so she has a holistic team that helps her stay on top of her health.
