Nelsonville woman credits checkups and support for beating cancer
Nelsonville resident Jane Ann Edwards credits regular medical checkups and a strong support network for catching breast cancer early. After seeking second opinions at Ohio Health O'Bleness Hospital and the James Cancer Hospital, she underwent surgery to remove lumps on both breasts and received more than 30 radiation treatments without chemotherapy. Her husband Gary aided daily travel to Columbus, helping her stay active through treatment, and she remains vigilant with semiannual checkups four and a half years post surgery.
