I was privileged to attend the Keeping Abreast Foundation's second annual luncheon today. The event featured three breast cancer survivors who shared their personal stories, (2 of which are my breasties) highlighting the foundation's profound impact. Although the local foundation is connected to the YaYa Mardi Gras Krewe, its purpose goes beyond social gatherings. The organization offers multifaceted support, encompassing breast cancer screening, life-saving imaging, financial assistance, meal provision, and funeral expenses. This year, I am proud to be a part of the YaYa membership, and I look forward to a fantastic experience. Having fun, raising awareness, sharing experiences, and mostly giving to a foundation that’s so dedicated to breast cancer and its local community. Keeping Abreast Foundation Krewe du YaYas

Hey there locals to the Pensacola Panhandle area!! This is for you! You've probably seen the advertisements in local magazines and wondered what in the world is ABUS technology for Breast Imaging! Well, wonder NO more! I got the honor of sitting down with Tena and Stephanie and asking all the questions you had! They share the technology and why 3d breast ultrasound is the better breast imaging solution you need!! Tena has put her over 20 years expertise in mammography to use and found a fantastic solution to what has been missing!

I personally tried it out and was amazed at how much more accurate this image is in comparison to others...you'll have to watch to find out what I'm talking about! 😉

Who is it for?
Anyone with breasts!
How much radiation?
ZERO!
This can fill the gaps in so many ways! maybe you were told you are too young for imaging! Well, with this you can get a clear image of your breast and find out if you have dense tissue!
Maybe you found "a spot" and it didn't show in conventional imaging..Maybe you've been putting off mammography because you heard it isn't safe! SO so SO many reasons whey ABUS is filling all these gaps! Any way you will just have to watch and find out for yourself!

Owner Tina Wright and RN Stephanie Englert from Gulf Islands Medical Imaging discuss the innovative ABUS (Automated Breast Ultrasound) technology. They expl...

Hey friends and warriors! Survivors, thrivers, and co survivors! I'm back! Did you miss me!?! Maybe you didn't notice, but I was taking a small mental break! I took the summer off from the channel to focus on my family and myself. Life was life-ing per usual and I am working more than I ever have and I needed to take a small hiatus from the channel!

Full transparency, I was kinda feeling a little in the pits. Not sure where it all came from. Could be life, could be stress, could be time, and energy. could be all of the above. Could be the weight of it all. But what ever it was or is I am gonna push forward and get back to sharing the most inspiring stories from the most amazing warriors! SO after today expect to see many more warrior stories!

Of the many realities of facing a cancer battle and overcoming life's challenges is the tendency to have some depression and anxiety. It's a completely common factor that I keep hearing over and over.... Some face depression and anxiety in the battle, some directly after the battle, and some many years later. Speaking from experience I had a stent of anxiety about reoccurrence for good while after stating the channel. When you keep it at the forefront of your mind it is easy to let your thoughts go to unsettling places. So, for the first time in my adult life I sought out counseling. I found a counselor that specialized in Oncology patients. It was one of the best decisions I could have made for myself. After many months and getting things aired out and off my chest I was able to stop the sessions. It helped me so much!! I know as adults we often think we are fine and don't need to deal with it....but I am here to encourage you all to seek help to help you process what happened. It was a fantastic thing for me! I still have to put into practice what I learned and I'm far from perfect....But working towards a healthy mindset is my goal. Which for me was taking a small break. I hope you all understand and I am excited and ready to jump back in! stay tuned!
