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.
