Breast cancer survivors motivated to share connections at Run for the Cure fundraiser

For Vivian Lui, the annual event is an opportunity to make memories with her family and connect with other people affected by breast cancer

“I just pray that I have more time to see my kids grow up.”

These are the words of Vivian Lui, a mother of two young children who has been living with an advanced form of breast cancer since 2019.

Lui was still breastfeeding her youngest child when she first discovered a lump in her breast in 2016. She was 35 at the time.

An ultrasound eventually revealed she had stage zero breast cancer, which was cured months later with one surgery, Lui said.
