When R. lost her mother in late 2023, the weight of grief led to deep depression and months of neglecting her health. By the summer of 2024, she discovered a growing lump in her breast but didn’t know where to turn.
Uninsured and uncertain about her options, R. found Libby’s Legacy Breast Cancer Foundation—a turning point in her journey. Our team immediately connected her with a clinic for a mammogram and ultrasound referral, getting her scheduled within a week. When the results showed she needed two biopsies, we worked with our partners to secure the procedures and prescriptions, ensuring both were completed within six days.
The diagnosis: invasive ductal carcinoma. But thanks to swift coordination, our case manager guided R. to a cancer center that accepted her into their charity program—securing a treatment plan with zero delays. From mammogram to oncology care, R. waited just 21 days.
Lives are saved when barriers are removed and R. is now receiving the care she needs.
