For Joetta Sunday, a routine screening mammogram led to a breast cancer diagnosis in December 2025. With her mother having died from breast cancer at just 41, the news brought added worry. As she prepared for chemotherapy, Joetta worried about the changes treatment could bring and how they might affect her sense of normalcy, including the possibility of hair loss.

At Reading Hospital’s McGlinn Cancer Institute, oncology nurse navigator Sherri Wunderlich introduced her to scalp cooling, a specialized cap that can help some patients reduce hair loss during chemotherapy. Thanks to equipment purchased by Friends of Reading Hospital, eligible patients can now access scalp cooling at no cost.

Joetta experienced minimal hair shedding and says the care team helped her feel comfortable throughout treatment.

“Not every journey is the same,” she said. “You need to find a medical team you have total confidence in and that can support you through the process. At McGlinn Cancer Institute, you will be well taken care of.”

Joetta’s story is a reminder to schedule your recommended screenings, talk with your care team about any concerns, and know that support and innovative treatment options are available. To learn more about scheduling your mammogram, visit TowerHealth.org/ShesMore. 💕
