195: Annabel Tully was 29 and pregnant when she got breast cancer


Listen Later

When deciding whether to pursue teaching or nursing, Annabel Tully flipped a coin, it landed on teaching, and that's what brought her to the bush where she found love.  Annabel and her husband have five children, most of them are adults now, but at one point, years ago, Annabel was terrified they'd grow up without a mother.  At just 29, what Annabel thought was just a blocked milk duct turned out to be breast cancer. She was pregnant at the time and had to go straight into two surgeries.... one to remove the cancer, and the other, an emergency- c-section to get her baby out before she went straight into chemotherapy treatment. Annabel finally beat it and was cancer free for 5 years before she got the cruel news no one saw coming.  October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and Annabel is particularly passionate about sharing her story. This  is a conversation every woman needs to here, young or old. This is her story.
