The Story Behind PINK "ME"
Double Mastectomies, Double Victories, and a Double Chance at life!
Twin sisters, Dr. Michelle Bean and Melinda Bean, were living in different states—New Mexico and Virginia—when they were diagnosed with breast cancer just six weeks apart. Despite the distance, their shared experience created an unbreakable bond of strength, support, and understanding that carried them through their journeys toward survivorship.
Inspired by this deeply personal journey, Dr. Michelle Bean, Founder and President of PINK “ME”® (Providing Information, Networking, and Knowledge—“My Experience”), established the organization to ensure that no woman faces breast cancer alone. What began as a shared experience between sisters has grown into a mission to provide connection, education, and compassionate support to women and families navigating the breast cancer journey.
One of PINK “ME”®’s signature programs, Connected by Cells, reflects this vision. Transforming the fear of a cancer diagnosis into a source of connection and empowerment, this virtual support platform provides women with essential information, meaningful connections, and a supportive community grounded in compassion and shared experience.
