Vera Ventura was diagnosed with bilateral breast cancer in 2019. She had inherited mutated genes from her family. She went through several sessions of chemotherapy, double mastectomy and reconstruction. When all her treatments were finally over, she was diagnosed with a tumor in her cerebellum in 2021. The breast cancer had metastasized into the brain at some point, which stopped the blood flow. However, the tumor was later removed, and Vera could heal after the treatment and is now a breast cancer support coach She says, " I would say to all cancer patients to get the service of a cancer coach who will lead you through the cancer journey. They have helped me a lot personally. You have to research, make changes, and not expect everyone to take care of you because you got cancer. And, have a belief in something greater than yourself."
