I found it February 6, 2015, during a self-exam while showering. The moment my finger trailed over the hard, baby pea-sized mass, the world stopped.

The Chemo Hat
We pulled into the parking lot at the oncology center in Madison and parked right up front by the doors. My gaze fell while I unlatched my seatbelt, and when I lifted my head back up, out through those front doors walked a frail-looking young woman with pale skin and a beautiful purple hat on…

Hi! I’m Christine Copper & the Founder of PinkRising.
I was born and raised in the Spring Green, Wisconsin, area. I’m an avid reader and love to write and teach self-help, personal growth and development, empowerment, and entrepreneurial books for women with breast cancer. Learn more about my published PinkRising books here.
My cancer diagnoses include:
- 2015 Stage IIIA Breast Cancer Triple+
- 2020 Stage IIIC Breast Cancer Triple+
- 2020 Renal Cell Carcinoma
- 2024 Stage IV Breast Cancer ER/PR+ HER2 Low Lung Mets
- 2025 Dedifferentiated Liposarcoma (rare aggressive cancer)
In addition to sharing my cancer experience, I utilize those 30+ years of learning, teaching, and writing outlined above to help teach and coach women with breast cancer to rise up and create and live a life they love…with zero regrets.
When I’m not helping other women, or recovering from chemotherapy, I can usually be found hanging out with my family or curled up with my dogs (Herbie, Daisy, and Sweet Pea) reading or writing.
P.S. As a hobby, I also write psychological thrillers with a touch of horror thrown in. It’s a great way to release my anger and frustration regarding terminal cancer. Learn more about my fiction books, available as ebooks, paperbacks, and audiobooks, and follow me on my Amazon Author Page.
