BREAST CANCER
Breast cancer battle at only 33
When Angelica-Hazel Toutounji found a
lump in her breast, she was only 33 and
juggling two young children while running
a busy women’s health business.
Health and wellness were at the core of
her life, so the last thing she was expecting
was a breast cancer diagnosis.
Diagnosed with an aggressive form of
HER2-positive breast cancer, she embarked
on extensive treatment, including a
breakthrough drug known as Herceptin,
and is now on the other side.
“That’s why I’m here – because research
gave me a chance.”
