15 Years Later: A Story of Strength, Survivorship, and Perspective.
This Breast Cancer Awareness Month, we're honored to share a personal story from someone who understands breast cancer from both sides of care.
Adie MacKenzie, Clinical Advisor at AIROS Medical, is not only a healthcare professional and Certified Lymphedema Therapist—she is also a 15-year survivor of triple-negative breast cancer.
On October 13, 2010, Adie completed her final chemotherapy treatment. While her cancer treatment ended, the journey of survivorship continued.
From navigating the physical and emotional challenges of chemotherapy to managing lasting effects such as neuropathy and lymphedema concerns, Adie's experiences have shaped her understanding of what patients face long after treatment.
As both a clinician and a survivor, she brings a perspective grounded in medical knowledge and personal experience.
In her latest blog, Adie reflects on 15 years of survivorship, the progress made in breast cancer treatment, and the importance of supporting patients throughout their lives.
