Did you know that there are more than 2.8 million breast cancer survivors in the United States (including those still being treated and those who have completed treatment)?

Since you may be overwhelmed and there’s a lot to understand, don't be afraid to ask a doctor questions before, during, and after diagnosis and treatment, and don't lose hope. Studies have shown that cancers detected early could mean earlier treatment and could possibly stop the disease from spreading.

And as hard as it might be:

• Try to stay positive and lean on your family, friends, and Sister Pact for support
• Talk to a doctor about next steps and potential treatment options
• Learn about treatment locations and support that’s available
