My husband of one year (1960) was the Prez of the Young Republican Club in Plainfield NJ. I was expected to vote for Nixon. But I didn’t. So think for yourself before you cast your vote. This year especially.

Spending time with her husband and family is one of Lindsey’s priorities. So are carrying on family traditions and making sure Jeremy has the support he needs. Reality is an emotional hurdle that Jeremy fears. Hear their thoughts. ❤️ #ThisIsMBC #ad

SHOW UP! Send a care package! Remind her that it's ok to cry, be angry and LAUGH! For the love of god- it's ok to laugh in the middle of a crisis. Laughter brings joy, which spurs positivity in our thoughts. #notanotherminute That's what we do @TeamPinkPackage

I remember sharing my story over coffee for the first time and he said "You know you have a story" and I said... "I do?" You have a story too, tell it! #notanotherminute @BreastCancerNDX @BethRosen
Q8: There is power in your story. And sharing your story can lead to helping others prioritize their own self care. What is something you are passionate about sharing? #NotAnotherMinute

I am passionate about sharing how important it is to be your own advocate, especially for your health. Follow your instinct, give yourself a voice. And support those who are going through challenges- SHOW UP! That's what @TeamPinkPackage is about. #notanotherminute @BethRosen

Yes! Every time breast cancer surfaces in a conversation either that person has faced it or knows someone close who has. #notanotherminute
Replying to @BreastCancerNDX
I never think "it couldn't happen to me" because so many of my friends are fighting or have fought. #NotAnotherMinute

Biggest day for me was advocating for my health when all my Dr's told me "I was fine". Four months later- Brilliant Mayo staff found a breast tumor. FOLLOW YOUR INSTINCT and voice. I wasn't "fine". #notanotherminute @BethRosen @BreastCancerNDX @buzzmommy
Q6: Advocating for yourself is another important step to self care. Tell us about a time you had to advocate for yourself. #NotAnotherMinute
