"I remember when I was like 10 and she'd say, 'Sweetie, go get me some tissue to stuff in my bra.' I didn't understand then, but she had one breast."at age 28, and as her father died after being diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer, a diagnosis she said took over one year as his symptoms were misdiagnosed.

"I have a granddaughter, so knowing that my voice was heard to help her generation is very huge to me," Jacque Berry added. Patel said current cancer data shows the need for the study.
