My name is Jayne Pritchard. You might recognize me as one of the news anchors from CTV News in Barrie. I was diagnosed with breast cancer and have written about my experience and the importance of looking after yourself through this journey.

Early detection is key to a positive outcome. I almost put off my mammogram, which discovered an early form of an aggressive type of breast cancer.
