A Johnston County couple has faced cancer six times—and come out stronger, turning their experience into a mission for early detection. David and Pat Penny, married over 51 years, say listening to your body is everything. David, a retired firefighter, survived five cancer diagnoses, including rare male breast cancer, after noticing a lump himself. Pat credits a routine mammogram for catching her breast cancer early. Now, they volunteer to spread the word: don’t ignore changes, and don’t skip checkups. Their story is a powerful reminder that nobody knows your body better than you. How has early detection or self-advocacy made a difference in your life or someone you love? #Health #BodyHealth #NorthCarolina
