The good, the bad, and yes, even the uncomfortable moments. As survivors, we’re often taught to suffer in silence, like that somehow makes us stronger. But in reality, hiding what we’re going through can feel like pretending. Pretending to be okay when we’re not. Carrying a load we were never meant to carry alone.

For me, surviving meant being strong, pushing through, andnever letting anyone see me break. Living, on the other hand, felt like a luxury I couldn't afford. I was a single mother of two when I got my first breast cancer diagnosis. There was no space for fear. No room for weakness.

Just a few months earlier, in October 2021, I found a lump in my right breast while putting on my bra. Although there was a history of prostate cancer in my family, there was no history of breast cancer. I never imagined I could receive a breast cancer diagnosis. Through my research, I quickly learned that many women and men are diagnosed with...]]></description><link>https://www.surviveandlivelife.com/post/tameka-baker-survivor-story</link><guid isPermaLink="false">697e1b852b413b3ab9db4e00</guid><pubDate>Wed, 17 Jun 2026 14:11:01 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/83d905_5d16ee77b77144d895601a81f0ef6c63~mv2.png/v1/fit/w_1000,h_1000,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>Cee Cee Mcgriff</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[Cancer Picked the Wrong Girl: Diana Bullard's Journey]]></title><description><![CDATA[Sister Survivor Story - Diana Bullard. My journey began in 2014. After eight needle biopsies and two surgical biopsies, breast cancer found its way into my life. The biopsies had shown that I was at high risk, but hearing the words "you have breast cancer" was still something I never expected. In April 2025, I was diagnosed with Stage 2 breast cancer. I couldn't believe it. Like so many others, I experienced a wide range of emotions. But from the very beginning, I was determined to fight.

I was diagnosed with two different types of breast cancer—HER2-Positive Metastatic Breast Cancer in my right breast and DCIS in my left. Two diagnoses, one body, and an unshakable will to fight. Just weeks later, I began chemotherapy. From November 2024 through March 2025, I pushed through treatment one day at a time. In March, I underwent a lumpectomy—another step forward on a path I never expected to walk.
