ENCORE #149! – (Plus an update!)) The YOUNGEST Breast Cancer Survivor…

From the first moment my wife discovered she had breast cancer in March of 2011, there was a deafening silence from the men I knew. Even ones whose wives, mothers or girlfriends had breast cancer seemed to have received a gag order from some Central Cancer Command and did little more than mumble about the experience. Not one to shut up for any known reason, I started this blog…That was four years ago – as time passed, people searching for answers stumbled across my blog and checked out what I had to say. The following entry first appeared in December of 2015 (and updated today!)…


As breast cancer affects men as well as women, sometimes we forget that not only are there young women who are diagnosed, there is also the YOUNGEST woman diagnosed with breast cancer.

Here’s the PEOPLE Magazine article with an embedded short video:

Here’s a standard news report Youtube:

Watch them and weep; then allow yourself to be inspired.
