FOX 7's Leslie Rangel speaks with a local Latina business owner who's on a mission to help people slow down for the sake of your physical and mental health. This story shows some medical photos that could be difficult to see.Latina business owner Rebekah Jasso-Jenson says her skincare business meant to help women slow down, saved her life as she battled cancer not once, but twice.
"I was diagnosed in March 2021 with stage zero ductal carcinoma in situ . What that basically means is that the cancer cells are there, but they haven’t yet formed a mass," Jasso-Jenson explains. Jasso-Jenson was declared cancer-free and focused again on growing Sanara Skincare, shipping her products to high-end spas and informing her community about clean beauty."I had actually been following an area on my left breast where I had had my biopsy that felt like scar tissue and it actually had turned into ductal invasive carcinoma. For it to turn into that from a mastectomy is very rare, which is why we just followed it," Jasso-Jenson says.
