🎀 Meet Our 2026 PINK Ambassadors 🎀
This year, Lackey Memorial Hospital wanted to put real faces and real stories behind breast cancer awareness. We invited breast cancer survivors from across our LMH family… both employees and immediate family members of employees… to become our first-ever PINK Ambassadors.
These women are more than a pink ribbon. They are survivors, daughters, mothers, sisters, friends and coworkers whose lives have been touched by breast cancer in very personal ways. In the weeks leading up to our “Pearls for the Girls” Ladies Night on October 1, we’ll be sharing their stories of HOPE in Pink & Pearls.
Because behind every ribbon is a real woman. Behind every survivor is a story. And sometimes, hearing someone else’s story is exactly the hope another woman needs.
🎀 Meet PINK Ambassador Sheila Renfroe
Business Office | Main Street Medical Clinic
In September 2024, Sheila was diagnosed with DCIS (Ductal Carcinoma In Situ), Grade 3, after going for her annual wellness visit and routine mammogram.
She had no lump. She had no visible signs that something was wrong.
Then, about a week after her mammogram, came the phone call no woman wants to receive: “We need you to come back for a biopsy.”
The biopsy confirmed breast cancer.
After much prayer and careful consideration, Sheila chose to undergo a bilateral mastectomy with reconstruction and lymph node removal. It was a major surgery, and recovery was a slow and sometimes overwhelming process. But through it all, Sheila says she continually reminded herself of the truth found in Philippians 4:13: “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.”
Today, Sheila is cancer free.
She says one of the greatest lessons the journey taught her was to let her faith be bigger than her fears, leave what she could not control in God’s hands, embrace the time she has been given and live life to the fullest.
And there is one message she especially wants other women to hear….
Get your mammograms.
Sheila had no lump and no outward signs of breast cancer. Had she skipped that routine mammogram, she says she would not have known the cancer was there.
Her story is a reminder that screenings matter, faith can carry us through frightening seasons, and sometimes taking care of ourselves means protecting both our health and our peace.
Today, we are proud to introduce Sheila Renfroe as one of Lackey Memorial Hospital’s 2026 PINK Ambassadors and to share her story of HOPE in Pink & Pearls. 🎀
Join us Thursday 10/1 at 6pm for Pearls for the Girls! At the Medical Arts Complex (The MAC) in Forest.
