TOGETHER WE ARE STRONGER

MY
STORY
On October 28, 2020 I had a breast biopsy following an abnormal mammogram. Several days later I discovered via My Chart medical record that my results were malignant. I officially had breast cancer. A few weeks later lumpectomy was performed to have the cancerous tumor removed. My treatment options were discussed and the initial plan was to have radiation, chemo and regular check ups. Subsequently the pathology report returned with a diagnosis of Triple-Negative Breast Cancer (TNBC). Everything changed, radiation was no longer necessary, I would have additional surgeries. My body would be cut, sutured, stretched, slow to heal and result in the discomfort I feel to this day.

WHAT CLIENTS SAY
“Thanks Pink for Pank for your help.
Pink for Pank made a big difference in my cancer journey. It was so encouraging and uplifting speaking with them about starting my journey. I'm a senior and they provided me with Port shirts and gas card money to help with my commute to and from my weekly Chemo appointments. I'm forever grateful for the help I received.”
Thanks, Susan
WHAT CLIENTS SAY
“I received a diagnosis of breast cancer in October 2025. I've done 6 rounds of chemo, two surgeries and 15 days of radiation and I'm currently taking treatment until the end of this year. I had to return to work because my FLMA ran out and I was faced with continuing treatment and had to go to treatment everyday. I'm still weak and there was no way I could take the train or subway to work so I had to take Uber (at 70 dollars one way, I was in tears) One of my sisters from the church I attend suggested I reach out to Pink for Pank for assistance. I did and they gave me an uber card for which I am very grateful. You never know where your help is going to come from, a lot of organizations require checking and saving information, I feel if I'm going through this, isn't that enough? Life was hard before and cancer makes it hard. Pink for pank was very nice and gentle. A little love and kindness goes a very long way and every little bit counts.”
