Robin is our team sponsor and you can read a little more about her and her continuous battle with breast cancer: You Have Cancer 3 words no human ever wants to hear. You hear that and your whole world is in front of your eyes. You go numb, you go deaf and my first thought was to my 2 year old little girl Alexandra, Alex for short. Hi my name is Robin Twaddell and Im a 3 times breast cancer survivor. I was first diagnosis at 36 with stage 3 breast cancer. Had a one breast mastectomy, 8 rounds of chemo and 33 rounds of radiation. No signs of any cancer until 3 1/2 years later. Found in my peck muscle, another surgery, 8 more rounds of chemo and 66 rounds of radiation. Radiation was twice a day for 33 days with only weekends off. Once in the morning before work, then again after work. And the third time was found in my good breast. A lumpectomy and 12 rounds of chemo. No Radiation. Enough about Cancer. Im a Mom, a wife, sister, aunt, best friend and one of the biggest Flyers fan EVER!!!. I have been married 15 years to my husband Michael, our anniversary is New Years Eve. We were married by Mayor Rendell for the Millennium Celebrations in Philadelphia. Im from South Philly and now live in Ridley Park. I work at the University of Pennsylvania, the school side. I have a younger sister and 2 wonderful nephews. Julian and Santino. And I am a proud Mommy of Alexandra. Alex is my world, she is the reason I fight so hard to stay in this world. IceWorks is my second home because of Alex. She is a figure skater, and it all started at a skating party. And now she competes for IceWorks in their skating program.
