Recognized for Health Advocacy
My cancer journey began in 1995 when I was diagnosed with triple-negative breast cancer. Since then, I have faced years of chemo, lumpectomy, two double mastectomies, radiation, and two clinical trials. But through it all, I have been blessed by God to walk and survive this disease.
For 29 years, I’ve carried the stories of countless friends we’ve lost to cancer. Pink Diamonds, Survivors of Cancer, Inc. is my way of giving back, honoring their legacies, and ensuring no woman in Texas feels alone or without the resources she needs. Together, we’re stronger.
Survivorship isn’t just about overcoming—it’s about thriving. Together, we can help women do both.

Providing Support for those in Need
Pink Diamonds proudly provide Knitted Knockers to oncology centers and other locations. These prosthetics are always free of charge for anyone who has undergone a mastectomy or lumpectomy.
Free Uber rides to and from treatment and medical appointments.
“Just Diagnosed” is given to our newly diagnosed breast cancer clients. The book serves as a guide to terminology that will be used by the oncologists, surgeons, radiologists and other providers.
During the months of September and October the Pink Diamonds donate door wreaths to survivors at no cost for community awareness of their cancer journey, past and present.
