Don't forget to update your credit card information in your recurring donation if you get a new one. It happened to me...
Sara Marian Lucking presents her IBC case in Module 5: Real-Life Scenarios in Survivorship - Panel Discussion and Q&A: youtu.be/sHrM_G4e1Eo
A family history of cancer isn't the whole story. Most women diagnosed with IBC have no strong family history at all. Know the signs. Trust your gut. Get it checked.

Some days, hope feels like a fight. For IBC patients, survivors, and caregivers, that's okay, it still matters. You are not alone in this. 💛

No single "IBC gene" exists, but BRCA1/2 mutations, linked to hereditary breast cancer, are relevant to IBC risk too, and treatment options based on these mutations apply.
Know the signs. Trust your gut. Get it checked.

IBC doesn't fit the stereotype. It doesn't care about age, and it doesn't only affect women. Know your body. 🎗️

Diet matters for breast cancer risk, but IBC doesn't play by the usual rules. Not every patient fits the "risk factor" checklist. Know the signs. Trust your gut. Get it checked.

If you are in the #Sealy area Saturday, October 24th, stop by Dukes on Main. A portion of proceeds will go towards inflammatory breast cancer research!
Radiation isn't a "just in case" step, it's part of the plan. Talk to your care team if you have questions about your treatment path.

Mammograms don't always tell the full story. Know your body, trust your instincts, and don't wait for a scan to confirm what you're feeling. 🎗️

Another myth we hear often: that IBC can be identified through a specific gene or biomarker test. The truth is more complex, and knowing it matters for early detection. Save this one for your records. 🎗️
