Amanda's Cancer Journey
“I’ve always seemed to fall into “Murphy’s Law” – if anything can go wrong, it will go wrong - which was my initial thought when I was diagnosed with Stage IV HER2+ breast cancer in my early thirties. Luckily through a clinical trial, we’ve found a way to keep my cancer at bay with minimal side effects so that I can continue raising my three boys, working and pursing my artistic passions.”
“I have three boys – ages 6 to 15 – so they certainly keep me busy. I needed a way to combat my cancer that allowed me to still be their mom. Our family motto has always been “just do whatever it takes and keep moving forward” and we are certainly living by that motto now!”
