Cure Today: Finding Strength and Advocacy During Breast Cancer Awareness Month

In honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, hear from Breast Cancer survivor and advocacy ambassador Jennie Smythe as she shares her journey from diagnosis to survivorship. Diagnosed at 41 while raising two young children, Jennie reflects on the power of community support, the “superhuman strength” parents can discover during treatment, and the importance of patient advocacy to drive change in research and policy.

“If I had known survivorship comes with a whole community of people to help you, I would have felt less alone in those first months,” Jennie shares.
