Chiqeeta's story

One April, Chiqeeta felt a lump.  She had two mammograms, spaced seven months apart.  This "lump" was declared benign by two radiologists, two gynecologists and one breast surgeon.  However, Chiqeeta had feeling that something wasn't right.  She persevered and eight months later, in December, Chiqeeta discovered a radiologist who in two minutes educated her about her dense-breast tissues, performed an ultrasound examination and clear saw her cancer.  He saved her life and is now, her hero.

Today, Chiqeeta is on a mission to educate as many women as possible about breast density and what to do about it.  She is one of this country's leading breast density education advocates and is the Director of Women's Health Advocacy for SonoCine, Inc.
