FORT WAYNE, Ind. (WPTA) - It was a snowy winter day in 2016, when Tamyra Kelly decided to stop by the Francine’s Friend’s Mobile Mammography Coach.

“I did a screening on a cold January day in Indiana, Fort Wayne, Indiana, and a couple hours, 24 hours later, they called and said, ‘We saw something, let’s try it again’.” Tamyra Kelly.

Kelly says she had no clue that just a day later, she’d hear something no one ever wants to hear.

She had triple negative breast cancer, one of the more aggressive forms of the disease.

“When I found it, it was devasting because I didn’t know that it ran in my family, and I still don’t believe it has. We’ve done some research and it’s just devasting to get the diagnosis because cancer, people look at it like a death sentence and it’s not.” Tamyra Kelly.
