Diagnosed at age 27.
The news of my diagnosis came as a complete shock—I was young and had just given birth and owned my own dance studio.

Today, Heather is working to raise awareness about cancers that are caused by HPV. She's spreading the word to other women that there are vaccines out there that can actually help protect you from having to experience cervical cancer like she had to experience. Heather can't have any more children of her own, but she's recently adopted the newest member of her family— a beautiful and healthy 4-year-old boy. Find out more about Heather's story here.
The stories are real. The women are real. The risk is real.
Speak with a healthcare professional today—right on your smartphone or computer—about whether HPV vaccination could be right for you.†
