Lizzie’s Army

Lizzie’s Story: My name is Lizzie and on June 25, 2020 at the age of 24, I was diagnosed with stage 2b Invasive Triple Negative Breast Cancer. Breast cancer has always been thought of as “an older woman’s cancer” but the fact of the matter is, thats simply not true any more. More and more women under 40 are being diagnosed every day, but you won’t see us on the Making Strides posters. The idea that “someone in their 20’s can’t get breast cancer” is dangerous and antiquated. I started a blog to help raise awareness and support for young women like me who are receiving this life altering diagnosis. No one is alone and together we can find a cure! A portion of the proceeds will be donated to Making strides Against Breast Cancer/American Cancer Society, as well as be used to cover accumulating medical expenses and bills Your generosity means the WORLD to me ❤️
