Genetics were not on Sarah’s side growing up. By the age of 13, her Mother had gotten a breast cancer diagnosis, one that was known to be hereditary. Sarah had an agonising 5 years to wait before she’d know that she carried the same genes. 

Sarah had to battle with surgeons to convince them to give her a double mastectomy and reconstruction, but she was always adamant it was the right choice for her. With the odds of getting breast cancer at 85%, it’s not a risk she was ever willing to take. 

Sarah now lives her life to the fullest. She makes a conscious effort to enjoy every day and celebrate life with a positive attitude.
