Nicole Carroll Honors Her Mother's Breast Cancer Journey

In honor of National Breast Cancer Awareness Month, we asked Patch readers to share their breast cancer journeys on Patch. This is Nicole Carroll's letter to her mother:

This is a picture of my mom, Sandra Carroll, with my sisters and me. Our mother is a breast cancer survivor who has overcome many obstacles in her life. She’s the strongest woman we know, and we want her to know how much we love and care about her.

We are so grateful for her fighting and beating breast cancer, and we love her so much! You’re our hero, Mom!

—Nicole Carroll
