Triple-stars for the TNBC Foundation website and forum!! It's been an invaluable resource for me during this unwanted journey. The forum has been absolutely incredible. I really don't know what I would be doing without it - and these amazing warrior women I have had the pleasure in "e-meeting." The website is also filled with insightful tools and patient-friendly. I am also grateful for the suggested questions to ask all of your doctors - they have been enlightening, educational and much-needed.

When I first went to the doctor and received the dx of TNBC, I was so scared and drove home crying. Everything that made me happy also made me sad. I felt that I couldn't talk to anyone about what I was going through because they wouldn't understand so I told very few people I had it. But being so scared with no one to talk to, I found this site and everyone's insight and comforting posts made accepting my cancer much easier. Everyone's support made me a much stronger person with the will to fight.
