Read Reagan's story

”When I was first diagnosed, I was angry, because who wouldn’t be when you’re diagnosed with cancer at 17. Going through treatment, I had good days and bad days. I met some of my best friends, I met my amazing care team, and I found a great platform to represent through this organization that I now represent for Miss America that I call the ‘C-word.’ It’s all about starting a conversation about cancer. To have this opportunity is the absolute best thing in the world. It’s my goal to hopefully work at Parkview in pediatric oncology to help kids with cancer.”
