Before she died, Collins penned a message to her fans urging them not to give up if they are diagnosed, and to help those suffering from cancer. “As you may have recently heard, I revealed that I have been LIVING life to the fullest with Stage 4 Breast Cancer for the past six and a half years,” she wrote. “With October being Breast Cancer Awareness Month, my message is this: Early detection can save lives! Get regular mammograms, and/or tell your loved ones too. Low cost or free mammograms are offered through many national programs and community organizations, so do your research. Even if you’ve been screened, and you have a gut feeling that something in your body is off, get a second opinion!
