Survivors' Corner A place where we honor a special survivor for putting up a fight against breast cancer with a result ending in victory My name is Tennille Smith, I am 47yrs old. My journey began in April of 2021. Right before my 45th birthday. I was diagnosed with stage 2 invasive carcinoma breast cancer. It's a very aggressive cancer. I finished my last chemo session October 27, 2021. November 9th , 2021 I was rushed to the hospital, because the tumor in my breast had spread to my brain. After undergoing brain surgery, two months later I had a Double Mastectomy. Along with many other surgeries. I am a Christian woman, and not only am I an advocate for Christ, I am an advocate for cancer survivors all over the world. I have inspired, encouraged, and uplifted many women and men through my journey! I am still in the Fight! Thriving and surviving ! I pack a mighty punch! My faith is strong & cancer picked the WRONG GIRL!! Tennille Smith Breast Cancer Survivor
