“I was ready to take action. While there were options to reduce my risk, a double mastectomy resonated and made the most sense for me. I wanted nothing more than to feel confident in my skin, empowered by my options and free from this deadly disease.”

“We are running toward the future we all want—a world without cancer.” – Kristina, a first-time DFMC runner
Kristina had the opportunity to share her story with the DFMC team the night before the Boston Marathon. The next day, she ran her 26.2-mile victory lap against cancer. 💙

“After having two more children in the years following, my risk for ovarian cancer was still lurking. On October 3, 2022, I had a complete hysterectomy. During recovery, I wanted something to look forward to. I applied to run the Boston Marathon® for the DFMC team.”

"Running became a metaphor for my experience. I never ran more than a 5K but decided I would run a marathon. If I can do that, I can walk into an operating room. I walked into an operating room to remove my healthy breast tissue to reduce my risk from 87% to under 5%.”

“I was born with the BRCA1 mutation, meaning I was considered high risk for various cancers. As the daughter of a two-time breast cancer survivor and the niece of a woman who died from ovarian cancer, the anxiety of not IF, but WHEN, consumed me."

So pissed that these losers trying to ruin our democracy stole the spotlight from the Georgia organizers who saved it.

I can imagine no other president in my lifetime failing to address the nation in a prime time speech during a crisis such as this. On the other hand, I cannot imagine another president whose words would be less welcome by so many of his fellow citizens.
Just ordered my first @Starbucks drink since March and stuttered the entire time ordering🤣 wow it’s been a minute.

Donald Trump on Fox News at the Lincoln Memorial. This has to be the opening scene for whoever writes the definitive History of the Decline and Fall of the American Republic.

I shouldn’t have to say this but, no president should ever praise a dictator on Twitter.

My husband wisely said“if you want to preserve democracy as we know it, you have to have a free and many times adversarial press. And without it, I am afraid that we would lose so much of our individual liberties over time. That's how dictators get started”#WorldPressFreedomDay

WATCH: Cuomo criticizes McConnell’s remarks on state virus aid:
“NY puts in to that federal pot $116B more than we take out ... KY takes out $148B more than they put in.
Sen. McConnell, who's getting bailed out here? It's your state that is living on the money that we generate”
KBra retweeted
Let’s talk about fairness, Mitch.
NYS puts $116 billion more into the federal pot than we take out.
Kentucky TAKES $148 billion more from the federal pot than they put in.
But we don't deserve help now because the 15,000 people who died here were predominately democrats?

The WHO had produced 1.4 million tests by the end of February.
We took none of them, because Trump decided to produce his own test, then botched the development and roll out.
It wasn't the WHO that put us in the position we are today. It was our own President.

🔥🔥This #COVID19 “briefing” is getting worse by the second for @realDonaldTrump.
@CNN just changed its chyron to “Trump Uses Task Force Briefing to Try and Rewrite History on #Coronavirus Response.”
