For Gemma, her two young children – Haylee and Will – are everything. She’s there to wake them in the morning, and kiss them goodnight. They don’t know she lives in fear of not being there as they grow up.
Gemma was just 27 years old when she was diagnosed with HER-2 positive, an extremely aggressive form of breast cancer. It was an enormous shock, but for women like Gemma there’s an even greater shock to come. Despite all the progress that’s been made in breast cancer treatment, some forms of breast cancer, including HER-2 positive, are extremely aggressive. Even after successful treatment, they can come back—and there’s no cure.
Gemma can’t plan for the future. She tries to live in the moment and treasure every day with her family.
“I’ve never been able to celebrate my treatment ending because I’m still living with this. My cancer could come back any time. I just hope researchers have found an effective treatment by then.”Please give a gift to help support research into new ways of treating aggressive breast cancers that threaten the lives of women like Gemma—and make their children fear they’re going to lose their mum.
