But tragically, she was reassured they weren’t connected. πŸ’”

Fast forward a month, and Rebecca faced the shocking news of triple-negative breast cancer – a less common and aggressive form of the disease. Despite going through rigorous treatment, including chemotherapy, surgery, and radiotherapy, Rebecca got the all-clear in early 2026. πŸŽ—οΈπŸ’ͺ

Just when life seemed to return to normal, a PET scan for a drug trial in April 2026 brought devastating news: Rebecca’s cancer had spread to her bones.

Rebecca’s journey is a poignant reminder of the importance of listening to our bodies and advocating for ourselves. She’s determined to live a meaningful life, despite facing a future where she’ll likely be in treatment indefinitely. Her sister, Jennie, has launched a fundraiser to secure the best care possible.
