Michelle Wilsey is a 29-year-old woman who was just diagnosed with breast cancer. She recently had a double mascetomy and will be undergoing chemo therapy and radiation this summer. Michelle was told by doctors that the lump she felt in her breast COULD NOT be breast cancer because she was healthy, young and had no history of breast caner, but after insisting that doctor’s due the tests, Michelle was diagnosed with stage 3 breast cancer in April 2008.
Michelle’s life has changed dramatically. And although she has insurance, there are MANY costs that insurance does not cover. We want to share Michelle’s story and make other young women aware that it can happen to them. Listen to your bodies, and go in for checkups regularly…it can save your life!
