In today's podcast Breast Cancer Conversations, we speak with breast cancer thriver, Kandace McMenomy from Laguna Beach, CA. It is such a pleasure speaking with Kandace. She is full of positivity, experiences, and a great outlook on life. As a marathon runner, she never imaged that she would be diagnosed with breast cancer at the age of 30. 5 years later, it had metastasized throughout her body. She still runs, appreciates every day, and is responding well to her current treatments. Welcome to the conversation.

And I don't run with my phone. And I thought, oh my god, what? Why are we stopped and not none of us knew what we're going what was going on? We started to hear the helicopters and I thought something weird is going on. So I asked somebody that was standing next to me if I could borrow their phone to call my mom because my mom and her girlfriend, my aunt and uncle were at the finish line . And I couldn't get through, right. So I use the phone to call my dad in LA. And I said, you need to get ahold of mom and you need to tell me where I'm supposed to go.”Socials:Say Hi on Social: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/SURVIVINGBREASTCANCERFacebook:https://www.facebook.com/SurvivingbreastcancerorgPinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/BreastCancerConversations/Twitter: https://twitter.com/SBC_org Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/survivingbreastcancerorg/ _________________________ Subscribe to our newsletter https://www.survivingbreastcancer.org/subscribe-1 Donate to our cause https://tinyurl.com/yc9cgt4e Attend an event https://www.survivingbreastcancer.org/events Support the show
