Testimonial for Renée Pizzuto

(Part 1) I have known Renee on a personal level for over twenty years. Getting to know her on a professional one and having her play such an important role in one of the most special treasured moments in my life was nothing short of one of my biggest blessings. My husband and I couldn't be more appreciative and grateful for all of Renee's hard work , guidance and support throughout the pregnancy and birth of our son. Renee and many others that have known me for a long time know how important it was for me to have a family. I would great conversations with Renee about the day I become a mother long before God had that planned for me. Considering I gave birth to my son right after I turned 40 forty years old those dreams where tested many of times . Renee always reassured me not to lose hope. The most challenging time I had to face this was when I was diagnosed with Stage 2b breast cancer in January 2017, right after I turned 38. Now besides being a mom was being questioned but if I was ever going to be able to nurse my baby once they were born . Again Renee reassured me that I would have a healthy baby no matter what I chose and informed me of all my options. I knew my health , my life, my presence would be the most important gift I gave my children if that time came. I went forward with my decision to have a full bilateral mastectomy in March 2017. My husband and I would marry July 2017 and our plans were only put off a short time because of my age. Once I got cleared from my oncologist our family was in the making. It was highly recommended to wait a little longer because of the hormonal change I would go through after estrogen and progesterone positive strong breast cancer but my doctor advised me to just get my follow up check ups after the birth of a baby.
