RTL-TX Site Director's Sister Featured in Breast Cancer Survivor Article | | |
With October being Breast Cancer Awareness Month, we thought we'd share the inspiring story of the sister of Nanette, RTL-Texas' site director. Kathleen is now a six year survivor of breast cancer doing very well, and her family history and story show just how much she has endured and fought to overcome this disease. Kathleen and Nanette have lost their grandmother, father and sister, all to breast cancer.
