ALEXANDRIA, La. – This month you can’t go anywhere without seeing pink. October is breast cancer awareness month. But there are some in Cenla who are always aware of breast cancer.
News Channel 5’s Kathleen Witte spoke with one survivor today about what this month means to her.
Last October, during breast cancer awareness month, Judy Copeland was undergoing radiation treatment for a cancerous tumor she found in her breast.
Judy Copeland, breast cancer survivor: “So a few months after my last mammogram, I found a lump. A pretty significant lump. And of course the bottom of your world falls out.”
But October is back again, and this time, Copeland says she’s celebrating.
Copeland: “Now I can look at it and say, that was me a year ago, and look at me now.”
She’s been in remission for two months, and Copeland says, it’s because of her faith, support system–and early detection.
