00:00So my name is Rosa.
00:06I'm Rikki Fairley.
00:07My name is Trish Michelle.
00:09Last January, I just so happened to be in the shower.
00:11I went to the doctor for my annual checkup.
00:14I had a physical, and the doctor said, you're great.
00:17I don't know what came across me, but I just wanted to do a breast exam.
00:20And my doctor found a lump on my breast.
00:22I remember sitting in that waiting room for that final diagnosis.
00:26It was so scary.
00:28Rosa called me.
00:29She told me, and I just remember falling to my knees and just bawling.
00:34Man, that was rough.
00:36Breast cancer definitely made me fearless, and that's why I knew I had to be an advocate.
00:41And what I learned by going through it was that I needed to take up space and use my
00:44voice.
00:45My son losing his father, it made me fight harder, because I said, he's not going to
00:49lose two parents.
00:50Here's the good news.
00:52She beat breast cancer.
00:54We survived, and that's the story that we need to tell.
00:57Hi, I'm Rikki Fairley.

01:00My name is Rosa.
01:01Not only am I a breast cancer survivor, I'm a thriver.
