A Wife and Husband's Journey Through Breast Cancer

In this video interview from the DiepCJourney podcast I speak to Nikki and Sean, a married couple who share the poignant story of going through Nikki’s discovery of a genetic mutation and facing the shocking news of breast cancer.
It is who we meet through our own breast cancer Journey that has a profound impact on a person’s personal life. Nikki and Sean are two of those people in my life. We experience a range of emotions together throughout the podcast because we have known each other for some time. This story needs to be shared in as much as it was difficult at times for us all.
Nikki and Sean give us an honest, raw, touching account of not only learning she had a genetic mutation putting her at high risk of getting breast cancer but also finding out after prophylactic DIEP flap breast reconstruction she found her own breast cancer. What is it like as a couple to hear the news, share it with two young sons, find the humor in life while facing breast cancer, and how they pulled each other through it all. They talk about surgery, chemotherapy, radiation, and recovery and survivorship.

Hi, All,
You both touched on many special, if not stunning parts of the Cancer saga in your lived experiences. It is so evident, no 2 paths are exactly alike. We are the stronger for the experence, refined by fire, at times, so it seems. We gain more courage from overcomers like yourselves. I am reminded, "The Lord's mercies are new every morning. Great is Your faithfulness, Lord to me." Lam 3:22-23
Wonderful that you three, all have recovered even stronger w the curve balls you each were thrown. Every story has at least one curve ball before its said and done. So satisfying to hear yourr stories.Thanks😅
