Rebecca’s Journey

 For many years I owned and operated a massage therapy and yoga business catering primarily to women throughout Northern Vermont and New Hampshire.  During a routine breast exam, I was diagnosed with breast cancer. Thru further tests, I learned that it was a very aggressive form of breast cancer and to minimize recurrence and spread to other organs, it was suggested I undergo a total bilateral mastectomy.  My surgery was on January 21, 2022, during a time when no one was allowed to be in the hospital to visit due to COVID.  After recovery, I gradually returned to my therapy and yoga business where I was met with a great, loyal following of patients.  My passion for helping others was the spark that inspired me to create Rebecca’s Journey so others can share their experiences and have an opportunity to forge life-long friendships.

She’s fought a thousand battles

She’s been broken and bruised

She’s felt the pain that most

couldn’t handle

She’s cried a thousand tears

but yet,

She never gives up

She always finds a way

To get back up and fight

She’s unbreakable

She’s a breast cancer warrior…

She is me.
