Today, Donna’s family is honoring her memory by helping fund the research desperately needed to better understand and treat this rare and aggressive disease.

What is Inflammatory Breast Cancer?
Inflammatory breast cancer is a rare and aggressive form of breast cancer that accounts for approximately 1% to 5% of all breast cancers diagnosed in the United States.
Unlike many other types of breast cancer, IBC often does not present as a typical breast lump. Cancer cells can block lymph vessels in the skin of the breast, causing the breast to become swollen, red, warm, or appear “inflamed.” Symptoms can develop and progress quickly, sometimes over just weeks or months.
IBC is considered either Stage III or Stage IV at diagnosis, depending on whether the cancer has spread to nearby lymph nodes or to distant parts of the body. Because of its unique presentation, IBC can be difficult to recognize and diagnose.

“27 years ago we lost this beautiful soul to IBC. Her name is Donna Roland Logan. I’m Mark Logan. Donna and I were married 11 years but knew each other since elementary school. We met in our 20’s by chance at a Pizza Hut. The rest is history. We have two beautiful kids who are both in the medical profession. Donna was 37 when she passed, I was 35. Katie was 7 and Joseph was 4. Read and listen for more about Donna’s story, her life and legacy and the crazy challenge that Joseph and I have set for ourselves.”

“I remember of hearing great stories about my mother, how she was a fighter and in the faces of great adversity she continued to advance forward, no matter how big or little the problem may have been. I am Joseph, at the age of 4, my life changed forever after learning that my mother would not be coming home. That was challenging to understand, and no kid is ever prepared for that, I had yet to discover the life she wanted me to live. 27 years later; I face another giant, to run 200 miles across Florida with my father, where every step ahead supports focused research for IBC.”

“My name is Katie and I lost my sweet mother to IBC 27 years ago. There isn’t a single day that goes by that I don’t think of her. I long the day we are reunited in heaven but I find peace in knowing she is watching our earthly story unfold from above. It is my privilege to keep her strong spirit alive and continue to talk about the memories we hold so dear.”
