Day 1: A Horrifying Diagnosis

Following the loss of her mother and some traumatic family drama that came with it, Dr. Tita Gray discovered a lump in her breast.

Scared but determined, she moves quickly to get a biopsy and finds out she has breast cancer. Further scans show it’s worse than initially thought, so her doctor recommends aggressive chemo ASAP.
