Elsa Marina | Oncological Surgery

Hello! My name is Elsa Marina Cruz Castellanos, I'm 53 years old, and I want to share my story with you. A year ago, I discovered a lump in my breast, and although the initial tests didn't show anything alarming, the situation soon changed. My breast swelled, and the doctors confirmed that I had a malignant tumor. It was a devastating blow, especially with my daughter.

But God has been our strength during this difficult journey.

I've undergone chemotherapy and other treatments, but surgery was crucial and we didn't have the resources to perform it. Then we discovered the Ruth Paz Foundation, which organizes oncology brigades.

I asked for help, and thank God we were chosen for the surgery. If I hadn't had the operation in time, the cancer could have spread. Thanks to the Foundation, the cancer has now been stopped, and I'm on the road to recovery.
