From The Founder | My Stage 3 Breast Cancer Story & Why I Started Warriors That Pray

When I was diagnosed with Stage 3 breast cancer at 27 years old, my world stopped. Suddenly, my days became filled with doctor's appointments, treatments, surgeries, uncertainty, and fear. There were moments when I felt strong and moments when I felt completely broken. Through it all, one thing remained constant: my faith.

I learned that cancer affects so much more than your body. It impacts your spirit, your relationships, your confidence, and your sense of normalcy. During some of my darkest days, it was the prayers of others that carried me when I couldn't find the words myself.

Warriors That Pray was born from that experience. What started as a simple bracelet became a way to remind fellow warriors that they are seen, loved, supported, and prayed for. Every bracelet represents hope. Every bracelet represents connection. Every bracelet represents the truth that no one should have to walk through cancer alone.

Today, every order helps us continue our mission of gifting bracelets to warriors around the world. Whether you're here because you're fighting cancer, supporting someone you love, or simply believe in the power of prayer, I want you to know how grateful I am that you're here.

With love and prayers,

Alyssa Wakeley
