6 months ago today, I had a double mastectomy.
Online, you've witnessed the determined, strong and capable Nikki work to regain my strength and mobility. In private, it's been a very challenging year, with a lot of worry and tears.
Two things can be true at once. š©·
I'd like nothing more than to turn the page on this difficult chapter of my life. But before I do, there's one more thing I'd like to do.
Next month will be my first Breast Cancer Awareness Month after my own diagnosis, and I'm planning an Appreciation Week.
I have a newfound appreciation for my health, caregivers, our healthcare system, doctors, nurses, and all of the people who support us when we're going through something we never expected to face.
And I want to celebrate them. š©·
JumpSport and Crossrope have joined me in sponsoring some special giveaways, including the pink āCourageā 39" JumpSport PRO and the Pink Limited Edition Ropeless Jump Rope Set.
I don't want this to be mistaken for pinkwashing. This isn't about selling something or putting a pink ribbon on a product and calling it awareness.
This is personal.
It's an act of closure for me. And if I can give something back to people who are struggling with their own diagnosis or treatment, or to the people who are standing beside them, then I'm honored to do so.
Please stay tuned for details as we approach October.
Appreciation Week will run Sunday, October 4th through Saturday, October 10th.
The workouts have already been filmed, and they're all with my amazing, supportive crew. š©·
We hope you'll join us.
