Fighting for All

By Emily Cook


I’m a 32-year-old United States Capitol Police Officer who was recently diagnosed last month with triple negative invasive lobular carcinoma. Previously, I was on Metropolitan Police Department’s mountain bike team and currently live in Maryland with my girlfriend and two French Bulldogs. I lost my mom to breast cancer in 2013 and my dad in 2020 to Covid.


I fight this fight for those who have lost, those who continue to fight, and those who have survived.
