Deb and Daryl.
We are a mother-daughter team fighting breast cancer and winning. We were diagnosed in 2022, each receiving a diagnosis of a different type of breast cancer within 100 days of the other. In good health, we were stunned by our diagnoses.

The impact of breast cancer on individuals and families is enormous and high-caliber treatment often requires significant travel. The availability and visibility of breast cancer precision medicine in Rhode Island are crucial on many levels. We know this firsthand and feel fortunate to be successfully and compassionately treated at the Brown University Heath Breast Center. We are outdoor enthusiasts and sea kayakers and invite you to participate in the 3rd annual Paddle for Progress RI community event with 100% of every dollar raised supporting breast cancer research and care in RI.
