The Truth About Being a Cancer Survivor in 2025

https://learnlooklocate.com/educate/patient-education/ 🌺 Eleonora Teplinsky, MD: “How do we handle survivorship if we get a reoccurrence? I mean, are we still a survivor? What does that mean? - So I think we want to come back to my original point, right? Which is that survivorship is defined from the day of diagnosis. And so as long as you're living with a disease, whether it's active or not, you are again considered a survivor. Now that term, as I've mentioned, maybe doesn't resonate with some people. Some people like to say there are thrivers and people don't use any words to define them. And I think the key is that it really is an individual term. Some people just prefer to describe what they've been through. I don't like to label anyone. And so it's whatever term you're most comfortable with.”

Cynthia Jordan, Founder of Learn Look Locate LLC in 2018 has generated a global movement to provide critical education for the early detection of breast cancer. It is estimated that one in eight women in the United States will develop breast cancer in her lifetime. While most of these cases are diagnosed in women over the age of 50, the disease can affect women of any age. Early detection is critical to survival, yet many women are not familiar with the signs and symptoms of breast cancer.

We advocate the importance of self-breast exams, what to look for when performing a self-exam, and when to see a doctor. We provide resources for women who have been diagnosed with breast cancer, as well as for their families and friends.

The five-year survival rate for women who catch their cancer early is nearly 100%. Here’s an important statistic. Many women do not perform self-breast exams or see a doctor for regular screenings. Learn Look Locate LLC wants to highlight the work of organizations around the world that are working to promote early detection of breast cancer. We will feature stories of women who have been diagnosed with breast cancer and share their journeys.

There are several ways to diagnose breast cancer, including mammograms, biopsies, and ultrasounds. Once breast cancer is diagnosed, there are a few treatment options available, including surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy. The best way to treat breast cancer is to catch it early and to get the best treatment possible.

There is a strong community of women who have been affected by breast cancer. In addition, there are a number of organizations and resources available to help women find the support they need.
