Tina Craciun, a 46-year-old wife, mother of two, and speech pathologist, recently added breast cancer survivor to her list of “accomplishments,” and gladly will share her story in hopes it will help other women who are just beginning their uphill battle with the disease.
“You will reach the top of that mountain, and the other side is so full of hope and relief,” she says during The Breast of Everything podcast.
Comprehensive Breast Care Surgeon Ashley Richardson, DO, FACOS, the podcast host and Tina’s surgeon, spoke with Tina about her cancer journey that began in November 2019 when, during her annual exam, a small lump was found in Tina’s right breast.
She was diagnosed with triple negative breast cancer.
Her initial reaction was, “I don’t have time for this right now.”
“Tina is a beacon of hope for other women facing a similar journey,” Dr. Richardson adds.
