Melanie Fowler
- Breast Cancer
I’m 65 years old, and thanks to a 35-year career at the Department of Defense, I’ve been happily retired for just about a decade. I live in Willow Grove, Pennsylvania, with my husband Bill, our dog Tess, short for Tess the Mess, and our cat Amoco, who is named for the gas station where we found her.
Angela Shammo
- Breast Cancer
I was a first grade teacher for six years before becoming a reading specialist for kids with learning disabilities. After having four children of my own, I decided to be a stay-at-home mom and teach my children, along with my nieces and nephews.
Karen Leone
- Endometrial (Uterine) Cancer
In 2013, Karen Leone was shocked to learn she had endometrial cancer after a routine gynecological exam. She sought treatment at Fox Chase Cancer Center, where she underwent a hysterectomy followed by chemotherapy and localized radiation. Today Karen's cancer is in remission. "The staff and patients at Fox Chase offered me encouragement and kept me positive and moving forward...I feel blessed and lucky as I continue to enjoy the time I spend with my friends and family, especially my three wonderful grandchildren," she said.
Frances Johnson
- Ovarian & Primary Peritoneal Cancer
At my yearly physical in 2013, my primary care doctor ordered a CAT scan when I told him about the pain I had started experiencing on my left side near my waist. When the results were considered normal, I began accepting the pain as a normal part of getting older. I was 81 at the time.
