There are two dates that Nicole Petersen Murr will not soon forget.
One is March 14, 2019. That was the day when she was diagnosed with HER2 triple positive invasive ductal carcinoma, an aggressive form of breast cancer.
The other is Oct. 28, 2020. That was the day when she got to ring the bell at City of Hope Newport Beach, indicating the completion of her cancer treatment. She’s been in remission for the last three months.
“Sometimes I’m stuck on, OK, when’s my youngest daughter’s birthday?” Petersen Murr said. “But I can remember those dates easier. It’s crazy.”
