Imagine being just eight years old and seeing your mother disfigured from a Halstead radical mastectomy due to breast cancer because reconstruction wasn't an option back then. That was Deb Hackenberry’s first introduction to the harsh reality of breast cancer. Later in life, Deb would face her own diagnosis—very early-stage invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC)—largely due to her family history. But it wasn’t just her family history. Environmental factors such as living near factories in New York and being close to the World Trade Center during 9/11 also potentially played a role in her diagnosis.
Motivated by her passion for research and compassion for others, Deb dedicated 14 years to volunteering at SHARE Cancer Support, leading a support group for DCIS patients, and assisting callers on the breast cancer patient support line. She also shares insights into where she is now on her advocacy journey.
