Layne Horwich was diagnosed with stage one breast cancer at age 100.

"I was putting on my nightgown one night and realized there was a lump there," Horwich said.

"I was so happy I didn't have a stroke or a heart attack because I would have been incapacitated.".

It’s a pill form of medication, which can help slow the growth of the breast cancer.

Breast cancer risk increases with age, according to Pesce, though Horwich is her first patient over 100.

She plans to continue living independently and spending time with her three daughters, seven grandchildren and seven great-grandchildren.

She hopes sharing her story will make a difference and inspire other women to be proactive about their health. »
