The Story Behind PINK "ME"
Double Mastectomies, Double Victories, and a Double Chance at life!
Twin sisters Dr. Michelle and Melinda Bean, living in different states—New Mexico and Virginia—were diagnosed with breast cancer just six weeks apart. This shared experience created a supportive bond that was crucial for both on their journeys toward survivorship. Inspired by this journey, Dr. Michelle Bean, the Founder and President, created PINK "ME" (Providing Information, Networking, and Knowledge, “My Experience”) to offer other women the same opportunity for connection and support.
One of PINK "ME”’s programs, "Connected by Cells," embodies Dr. Bean’s vision by transforming the daunting diagnosis of cancerous cells into a positive, virtual support platform. It provides women with the necessary information for their journey, enables them to connect and network with others, and offers compassionate support.
