DIX HILLS, Long Island (WABC) For those battling cancer, the pandemic has been a medical nightmare as they have been put in a new category for the COVID vaccine.
And like others, they have found the process of trying to get an appointment a battle of its own so that s where others have stepped in to help. When you get diagnosed, you feel just completely alone and the world just kind of stops, said breast cancer survivor Jenny Kim.
Kim, of Dix Hills, 38, was diagnosed with invasive breast cancer last July and has endured three surgeries and chemo since August. She did it all with four kids under the age of 10 at home all during the stress of a pandemic.
