"Dear Paige,
Everything is going to be ok. I know you’re scared. I know you feel so alone in all of this. I know there are so many what-if’s floating around in your head. What if this is a mistake? What if something goes horribly wrong? What will your chest look like? How is this going to affect the rest of your life? Your relationships? Your career? Don’t worry, these feelings are normal! After all, this is one of the bravest/craziest things you could possibly do - remove your “healthy” breasts at only 24 years old to prevent getting breast cancer. Deep down, regardless of the fears and uncertainty, you know this is the right decision. The only decision for you. You truly are a warrior not a worrier. I’m not saying this is going to be easy. You’re going to go through pain and heartbreak. Climbing mountains isn’t easy. But you know that mountains are only placed in front of those who can climb them. And you’ve got this." 💫

"In Aug 2018 I tested positive for the BRCA 1 gene mutation- meaning there was an 87% chance of being diagnosed with breast cancer at some point in my life. After seeing what it put my mom through, I knew I didn’t want to sit around & wait for that to happen to me. So, in Oct 2018, I chose to have a preventative double mastectomy & cut my chances down to 1%."

"Today is the day I say goodbye to my growing breast lump. I don’t feel scared, I feel empowered. I check my breasts on the 1st of every month and I know my risk. 💕
If you are putting off getting checked, ask yourself why? What’s so bad about getting your doctor to check your breasts just once a year?" 🦋

@emilyelizabethmay is a brave young woman who knows her risk and is taking proactive steps to manage her health 🙌

Click the link in our bio to find out your risk by using our 'Know Your Risk Tool' - a simple questionnaire that can help you assess your risk of developing breast or ovarian cancer.
And don't forget to check your breasts! 💕 ✊
