At first, I didn’t think I wanted my portrait taken. I’m not that confident anymore, especially with how my body’s changed. But then I thought – I’m still here. The treatment has been brutal, but I’m still standing. That means something.

It felt empowering. Yes, I felt vulnerable – but I also felt proud. It’s about showing strength, survival, and what secondary breast cancer really looks like.
