00:00I really wanted to be there.
00:01I'm recovering from breast cancer.
00:03I just finished radiation a week ago,
00:05so I'm in actually the worst part of the side effects,
00:08but the end of the treatment.
00:10So I'm super excited that I see an end in sight,
00:14and I've had, I'm so grateful
00:17because I've had just incredible medical support
00:19and so much support from people around the world,
00:23both at Accenture and outside Accenture,
00:25many of the women on the world's most powerful list.
00:29So I am, I see the light at the end of the tunnel,
00:33and the one message I would have for all of you
00:35is that I can be in a great place right now
00:38because of early detection.
00:40I had breast cancer 11 years ago,
00:43and I found it on a mammogram,
00:45and this time I found it through a self-examination,
00:48and so I never lose an opportunity to remind all of us
00:52as busy leaders to take care of our health,
00:55and specifically with breast cancer to get your screenings.
