Pearl was an amazing advocate for me and connected me with other team members who would work best for me.
Pearl was so incredibly supportive of me when I was diagnosed with breast cancer last year. I made the decision to pursue a unilateral simple mastectomy, and she cheered on my decision. She was always available to answer questions, positive in spite of a scary diagnosis. She was an amazing advocate for me and connected me with other team members who would work best for me. Pearl made all the difference for me. When I was the most anxious and had a thousand random questions, she made herself entirely available. She helped me see that while a cancer diagnosis is scary and life-altering, I can still move forward, be positive and productive, and look forward to some new normalcy.
