00:00 I want to start by doing this and asking you a big favor.
00:09 Just take a second to recall the names of eight women who you love and know in your
00:15 life.
00:16 Just eight.
00:18 Count them on your fingers.
00:20 Statistically, one of them will get or have breast cancer.
00:27 I am that one in eight in my friend group.
00:30 I have never been sick a day of my life.
00:32 I don't smoke.
00:33 I rarely drink.
00:34 Breast cancer does not run in my family.
00:37 And yet here I am with stage three breast cancer.
00:41 It is hard to say out loud.
00:43 I am in my second month of chemo treatments and will do radiation and a double mastectomy.
00:49 Stage three is not a death sentence anymore for the vast majority of women.
