TIFFANY’S STORY begins …. READ MORE HERE
” On April 1, 2008, Tiffany Bond had just sat down for lunch with her mother and her husband when she received the call that would change her life forever. Diagnosed with a form of throat cancer at the age of 39, Tiffany struggled through her initial shock and then began to Take Action. …”
“When I got my diagnosis I went on automatic pilot and realized I needed to learn more about my type of cancer.
The first thing I did was go to the Canadian Cancer Society’s website. I was very surprised at how much information I found there, including downloadable brochures.”

“Tiffany Bond had turned her life around, and the future looked bright: She had overcome a battle with addiction, re-married and settled in Ajax, Ont., with her husband and 17-year-old son. She was helping other women through her work as a domestic violence counsellor in a women’s shelter.
Her world changed with a phone call. The events that led to that call were ordinary: In November, 2007, she thought she was catching a cold. Her throat was sore and her glands were slightly swollen, but she didn’t think anything of it. In March, 2008, she felt a lump near her glands. “It didn’t hurt but I went to my family doctor. He poked and prodded, felt this lump and decided to start me on a round of antibiotics [and] he gave me a requisition form to go have an x-ray,” Ms. Bond recalls.
“I started on the antibiotics and two days later went in for the x-ray.”
Tiffany Bond – WOMAN of ACTION™ is being ‘Celebrated for Taking Action‘ to find a cure for her own challenges with cancer, and for working diligently for The Canadian Cancer Society, volunteering tirelessly.

October 14, 2012, Tiffany rushed from her Cancer Walk in Whitby, Ontario to the ROGERS CENTER in Toronto, so to Take Action as one of our celebrated guest speakers at our inaugural A Celebration of Cancer Survivors – POST GAME PINK DAY EVENT, with the Toronto Argonauts.
*This event, organized with only 10 days notice, raised over $17,000.00 for the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation (Ontario).
