PJ Lynn had an amazing career flying around the world as part of her exciting work in the travel industry before being diagnosed with breast cancer.
“Travel has always been part of my life and my first flight was when I was 14 years old and I flew from Chicago to San Francisco to see the Beatles in concert,” said PJ, who grew up in the United States.
“One of the highlights during my career was travelling on the Concorde in the 1980s when I sat near Paul and Linda McCartney and their family, and Paul spoke to me at JFK customs.”
PJ was about to turn 50 when she was diagnosed with breast cancer. She was at a spin club and saw a van on the street that was providing mammograms.
“I stopped in and asked if I could get my first mammogram and the nurse said ‘yes’,” she recalled. “A week later my husband and I were driving in the car when we received the call from my local hospital to come in for a second opinion. Soon after I had surgery and it was on my 50th birthday in December that I received a diagnosis of invasive breast cancer.”
