3 Decades, 3 Cancers: Stacey Sager's story of perseverance, sacrifice and survival

For anyone who has ever faced a cancer diagnosis, Eyewitness News Reporter Stacey Sager describes the importance of speaking up, never giving up, and knowing your own body.
As a BRCA-positive woman, Stacey has long advocated for the importance of staying vigilant about both breast and ovarian cancer.
Stacey walks viewers through a deeply personal and shocking journey -- one that is a quarter of a century-long.
She details her 3 separate cancer cases, and how her most recent cancer formed under the rarest of circumstances.
Stacey's doctors from Mount Sinai's Dubin Breast Center of The Tisch Cancer Institute and U Penn's Basser Center for BRCA also enlighten viewers on their thoughts regarding triple-negative breast cancer and the likelihood of vaccines.
A must-see for anyone who hopes to find cancer before it is too late, and the inspirational account of someone who continues to defy her own lifetime risk.
For a better viewing experience, you can stream the series on-demand on our ABC7NY app on Roku, FireTV, Apple TV, and Android TV.

I have not thought about Joan London in years! I followed her in probably the 80s and 90s! She is a brave woman!

Thank you for sharing your story. Cancer runs rampant through my family. I had a prophylactic double mastectomy in 2012 after a biopsy showed LCIS. My md told me it was my decision to make. Pathology came back and found DCIS in both breasts. This did not show up on previous mammograms, ultrasounds or breast MRIs. I wasn't aware there could be a primary recurrence! My 38 year old niece has been battling triple negative breast cancer for 15 months. I pray for all those afflicted with this dreadful disease.

Bless your heart, Stacey! My sister thought ignoring symptoms was a sign of strength. At 29, I had firm symptoms of osteoporosis. I got the best doctor at U.C.S.F., and per her instructions, I called my sister's and the adult niece, advising them to get the scans. My oldest sister got the scan, but didn't take her medicine. My other sister and I are doing well many years later. My oldest sister also ignored her cancer symptoms. She, as a result, didn't make it. Stacey, I love how you advocate for yourself! That's the best example for your daughter's and your other loved ones! .

You are so very brave. I was diagnosed with triple negative in 2019. I requested a double mastectomy and was in a clinical trial. So far doing ok. And just getting on with it is the only way

I am now living with my second bout of breast cancer. I was cancer free for 34 years before it showed up again last month. 34 years ago my chemo was Adriamycin, Cytoxin and 5FU for 6 months and then 6 weeks (30 doses total) of radiation. It “cured” me for 34 years. Now I am getting ready to start 17 cycles of 3 weeks a cycle of chemo (aprx a years worth) and 2 weeks of radiation. To say I am a bit gob smacked is an understatement. Will pray for you as we travel this not so fun season in our lives.

What an incredible story! You are poised and yet passionate about sharing your story - and you are STRONG. My sister had DCIS stage 0, one side removed, then DCIS stage 1, both in her 40's. Full mastectomy. My cousin had BC at age 47. My aunt had ovarian cancer. Yet, oddly (and thankfully) my sisters and I are BRCA gene negative. So very surprising to find that out. My mom, and her own mom, both died from non-smoking related lung cancer. Perhaps we just have other cancer genes. We get scanned regularly.

Way to be Stacey. I was just diagnosed with a recurrence, BCBM after 3x+ IDC found the day of lockdown 2020 somewhat as a fluke. Never imagined now, esp without cancer anywhere else and completely disease free. The message is never rest on your laurels. Your story is one of the best. Thank you for sharing and I hope everyone listens. To you and to their bodies!

I’m a cancer survivor. Once you get cancer you are never cured unfortunately. Wishing you great recovery! Best to get bilateral ultrasound before you get a mammogram. If you are prone to micro calcifications in your breast and other organs you need to take MK7 - vitamink and magnesium

I understand that we need to be proactive & I am one who doesn’t trust in Doctors who don’t Allow you to voice your concerns! My experience because I had a Mano that was also diagnosed as scattered densities in right breast- so I went for ultrasound and they said to schedule a biopsy! I wanted even more evidence before a biopsy. ( because friends had been misdiagnosed unnecessarily!) The day after, I received a letter saying it was Left breast that needed to be ultrasounded! I was happy that my suspicions were correct. As I saved myself a Biopsy in the right side! Now I’m confused, as what test will get this right? I want a test that shows the correct picture. My Doctor is bullying me to get another Mammogram and don’t question it anymore! I’m not convinced! Help?

Stacy , I’m so sorry for your journey yet you are So Strong! You are Inspiring me & so Many Others by sharing your journey. I’m 70 and thinking that this treatment Avenue would be my death anyway??? Just not sure , my only Daughter & Grandson are strong and would be fine when I pass - Yet it’s so hard to let go completely? Not sure if Quality outweighs the treatment.???❤

I hope this woman finds Dr. Lorraine Day MD. Dr. Day cured her own end stage breast cancer by all natural methods with NO reoccurrence throughout her life. Dr. Day explains why surgery and chemotherapy never work and most people will have reoccurrence with these types of treatments. Most importantly, I hope the woman in this video finds truth and a path to complete healing.
