TUCSON, Ariz. — On Sunday, breast cancer survivors, family and friends, and community groups came out to University of Arizona's Tech Park for"Pink Out the Park."“The event is so important to show people that there is survivorship after cancer, and there’s healthy survivorship after cancer," said Dr. Elizabeth Almli with Tucson Cancer Conquerors, a non-profit, volunteer support group.
It turned out to be very aggressive. So, she underwent a year of chemotherapy and a mastectomy, followed with breast reconstructive surgery. Now Almli’s helping other women on their own journeys with cancer. She says awareness is key, and so is leaning on support groups like theirs. Julie Ragland is also a breast cancer survivor and chose not to have breast reconstruction after her surgery during the COVID-19 pandemic.
