Hi, my name is Brenda Danek, I’m 69 years old. I am a breast cancer survivor. I had breast cancer in 2005!
We would like to thank you for supporting Brenda Danek in this year's competition. Your support helps us contribute to the National Breast Cancer Foundation who provides early detection, education, and support services to those affected by breast cancer.
Actually I was great at 40! I never felt old. When I turned 50, was when my whole world fell apart. That’s when I was diagnosed with stage 3 breast cancer. I just don’t like being 69, and 70 years old really scares me. I guess you take it one day at a time! Sorry, my story is not as upbeat as you might like, but that is part of my story.
How do you stay fabulous?I try to take care of myself. I am a caregiver for my boyfriend that is in really bad health. I am doing the best that I can, under these circumstances.
What would you do with the $40,000?I would pay some credit card debt off. Maybe take a vacation, haven’t heard that word for along time. Vacation!
