6 Michelle Berndt Mrs. Texas International Breast Cancer Survivor On Feb. 14, 2012 I was diagnosed with invasive breast cancer. This was not a surprise to me as I am a fourth generation BRCA 2 gene carrier and had recently watched my mom and grandma suffer from cancer. On Feb. 24, 2012, I had a bilateral mastectomy and the cancer was removed. However, the journey had only begun. Shortly after followed eight rounds of chemo, eight steroid shots, an emergency three-day stay at the hospital and 33 radiation treatments. I believe God chose this path for me to help empower women to embrace their inner beauty even when challenges are thrown their way. At a time when I had no eyebrows, eyelashes or hair, I was most positive, strong and confident about my future. I am proud to say I am a one-year survivor and just finished the final chapter in March 2013 with my reconstructive surgery and hysterectomy. Since her diagnosis, Michelle has shared her story at numerous events: Guest speaker at Baylor Charles A. Sammons Cancer Center Beat Cancer fundraiser Young Adult Cancer Survivor Summit Relay for Life Good Morning Texas Baylor Health Care System documentary, Dallas Hope As Mrs. Texas International, Michelle has committed to: Educating women about the importance of annual mammograms and self-exams for early detection Serving as a spokesperson for Susan G. Komen and the American Cancer Society to celebrate more cancer survivors Working with organizations to assist patients in healing Focusing on finding a cure
