And if there is anything she wants to relay during Breast Cancer Awareness Month, it’s her advice “to prepare for the worst, but plan for the best.” “When I was first diagnosed in 2015, I went on a bike ride and, although I didn’t plan it, I ended up at the cemetery,” Carter said. “I had a good heart-to-heart with my greatest fear, and I made a clear decision to make cancer my friend, and not my enemy, because it would help me jump into life with both feet.” The diagnosis surprised Carter, because she had undergone a mammogram and biopsy in 2014. “The radiologist saw it on the mammogram and ordered a biopsy, which came up negative,” she said. “The thing was, the biopsy hinged on us- ing a needle and hitting the right spot, which it didn’t.” In 2015, Carter went in for more tests and doctors diagnosed her with late stage-three breast cancer. “Looking back, I would have requested an incisional biopsy to make sure we tested the right tissue,” she said. Carter believes miscommunication between the radiologists made misdiagnosis more likely “The radiologist who did the mammogram sent over the report to my doctor, and my doctor looked at the report and sent it to the radiologist who did my biopsy,” she said. “I really do believe if there had been direct communication in my case, they would have been more apt to take another step in testing.” Still, Carter feels lucky the doctors were able to catch the cancer when they did. “I had a pretty aggressive form of cancer, which was good because there were treatments for it,” she said.
