I was completely overwhelmed when I received the “C” diagnosis after my annual mammogram in 2017. I am a grandmother myself and I wanted to show strength, dignity, and courage to my two teenage granddaughters. I felt what better way to empower myself and them than to have a portrait of myself and the four other women most important to me, my daughter, her daughter, my daughter-in-law, and her daughter. This portrait will always remind us of our strength, dignity, and power of us and within us.
