Four years ago, I had my first lumpectomy and, like so many of us do, I believed it was over. But recently, I got the call no one wants to get—again. The cancer is back. DCIS: ductal carcinoma in situ. On Monday, May 19, I’ll meet with my surgeon to schedule my double mastectomy with reconstructive surgery. I’m scared. I’m hopeful. And I’m more clear than ever about what truly matters. This time, it’s not just about removing the cancer. It’s about releasing the trauma—from my body and my spirit. Sharing this openly, and asking for support, is part of that healing. Thank you for walking with me.
