THE WOMAN BEHIND THE MISSION

I'm Amy Terrell!

As a breast cancer SURVIVOR, I have experienced the healthcare system's complexities and intricacies. I understand the challenges when navigating the breast cancer journey because I faced them, from diagnosis to treatment and beyond…

My story began on May 27, 2021, with an annual mammogram—a year after COVID-19. I was back on track with my preventative care. This wasn't new; I had been diligent for 17 years. I expected the usual assurance in the mail, highlighting a clear scan.

Two weeks later, an unexpected call from my primary physician's office broke the calm. Anticipating a routine reminder, I forwarded the call to voicemail. The message I received was far from ordinary. The details of tumors – the number, sizes, and locations - left me in disbelief and shock. This wasn't my expectation of what should've been a routine mammogram.

 

Further tests on June 11 deepened my anxieties. The Radiologist's concern was evident, and on June 15, the diagnosis was  confirmed: BREAST CANCER. The reassuring words from the Radiologist's Assistant did little to comfort me. Overwhelmed, I tried reaching out to oncologists recommended by other women who had faced this journey, but their oncologists were either retired, on vacation, or unavailable for several months.

 

Taking a moment to process the news, I relied on my experience in Health Services Administration to guide my next steps. I took it upon myself to conduct thorough research to gain even more insight into oncologists in the area. Afterwards, I developed a well-informed plan of action. This proactive approach was instrumental in ensuring I received the necessary care immediately.

 

Through many heartfelt conversations with breast cancer patients, some of whom had experienced recurrences, I became aware of their concerns about their cancer treatments and the difficulty of navigating the healthcare system. Those conversations and my own experience made me realize the urgent need for a solution to ease the strain on the healthcare system and help patients identify the best treatment option while providing them with the guidance and support they desperately need.

 

Together, we share in the DIAGNOSIS; let's share in the SOLUTION!
