In 2018, Polly found herself once again coming to Francine’s Friends for a 3D mammogram. Only this time her results were much different. She was diagnosed with breast cancer that day — nearly three months before she would walk down the aisle to her now husband.
“I had invasive lumpectomy surgery to attempt to remove the cancer and some lymph nodes. This surgery was three weeks before I was supposed to put on my wedding dress and get married,” she continued – sounding almost surprised at what she has conquered even today.
Along with the surgeries, Polly would undergo 20 radiation treatments. Even with a family history of breast cancer the news was still crippling.
“Francine’s Friends were beyond amazing. While they offer great services and assistance for those in need of financial support – I went to Francine’s Friends because they were convenient, helpful, caring, and ready to fight this battle with me,” she expressed.
Polly married her husband on April 28, 2018 and received her final radiation treatment at Parkview’s Cancer Center on June 19 of that same year. Thanks to your generosity and valued support of Francine’s Friends, not only is Polly enjoying time with her husband and family today,
