My name is Runi and I was diagnosed November 16, 2005 just a few weeks shy of my 29th birthday. I was repeatedly told that I was too young and too healthy to have breast cancer. Cancer is not prejudice to anyone regardless of age, race or socioeconomic. This is my story and I hope people learn a great deal from it. Feel free to contact me if you have questions or want to simply talk.

Pictures of my hair about 3 years post chemo & my up coming cancerversary
Pink weekend at The Smile Never Fades Gala September 25, 2009 Blog and extra picture taken by Michael Barnes.

So it's getting pretty long. My goal is to grow it long and then donate my hair again. There's still a little chemo curl/wave left but nothing that is overly bothersome. I love being able to put it in a ponytail or clipping it up. Talk about learning to appreciate what you have/had!
November 16th will be my 4 year Cancerversary. Someone coined this word apparently and it marks the day you were diagnosed with cancer. It falls on Monday this year but I plan on celebrating the weekend prior. Heck, celebrate all month since my 33rd birthday is coming up too!
