Your Role

Your Role

Connect with the Why
Your doctor’s job is to manage and treat your disease but it’s your responsibility to put resources in place that meet your physical, practical and emotional needs. Being diagnosed with cancer is a traumatizing event and requires additional support beyond your medical cancer plan. If you want to develop resiliency and thrive after your diagnosis choose to be an active participant in your own care. By using this site as a navigation tool you can identify supports that best meet your individualized needs and put them in place. Studies continue to demonstrate that patients who do this do better and have a higher quality of life than those who don’t.
Our Founder

Our Founder

Hi. I’m Beth, a young breast cancer survivor and the Founder of Faith Through Fire. I consider myself a pretty strong person, but nothing prepared me for the day I was diagnosed with cancer. I was 35 years old with a six, four and one year old.

Finding I wasn’t invincible was shocking but harder still was the realization I couldn’t navigate cancer on my own. Self-reliance had always been my best friend, but I quickly realized it wouldn’t work in this circumstance- I needed others to help me.

If you have read my blog or listened to my podcast, you know vulnerability is not an emotion I am comfortable with. However, accepting the help others were offering or recognizing a need and being wise enough to find a way to meet it allowed me not just to survive my experience but to thrive despite it.

I want all patients diagnosed with breast cancer referred to Faith Through Fire, where they can find existing supports and resources that best meet their individualized needs so they can live their best life.

Having cancer is hard, but finding support shouldn’t be. Faith Through Fire is here to help.
