One of this year’s Lee National Denim Day® survivors, Catherine Aplin, has a survival story is unlike any other. At only 19 years old, she discovered a lump in her breast. Two years later, it was discovered that at the young age of 21 and a senior in college, Catherine was diagnosed with the BRCA 2 gene and stage III ductal carcinoma. After the initial shock and disbelief, she went straight into survivor mode and started her fight against the disease. She defeated cancer with a smile and her family has been involved in spreading breast cancer awareness ever since. Support her and the American Cancer Society’s efforts to finish the fight against cancer by registering a team and donating today at denimday.com.
