At 17, AnMarie was getting ready to graduate from high school, which is a huge life change in and of itself. For many, it means you will soon be moving out, becoming independent from your family for the first time in your life, and making decisions about your future. It comes with all kinds of excitement and anticipation, and it’s pretty normal to experience some anxiety and worries.
As a teenager about to take this big step in life, cancer is usually not high on the list of worries. But, for AnMarie, it turned out it was.
AnMarie noticed a mole on her arm had changed, so she had her doctor check it out and was told she probably didn’t need to worry about it. The biopsy told another story, and she was diagnosed with melanoma. Surgeons removed a large piece of skin from her upper arm and a lymph node from under her arm.
The surgery was successful, and AnMarie was relieved to learn she was cancer-free.
But, she had another nagging problem.
Her body odor after surgery had changed. AnMarie assumed the odor was temporary and she would return to smelling like herself over time, but the odor was proving to be long term. This left her self-conscious and prone to constant worry about how she smelled.
Using a natural, aluminum-free deodorant had become a priority to AnMarie, but all the deodorants she tried had failed her. One after the other, they ended up in her garbage because they only worked for a few hours, or were altogether ineffective. Others had strong fragrances that would mingle with her own odor and create a cocktail of smells, making her feel more self-conscious than the body odor alone.
For two years, AnMarie’s search for a solution left her feeling frustrated and hopeless.
This new body odor was an embarrassment and constant reminder to AnMarie of all the difficulty she had experienced. She was ready to put all the trauma behind her, but the foul smell would not let her. Hadn’t she been through enough?
AnMarie first learned about Lume’s natural, patented, aluminum-free formula from a friend who knew she had been looking for a new deodorant. AnMarie figured she would try Lume, but her expectations were not high.
The first time AnMarie used Lume Deodorant for Underarms & Private Parts, she was happily surprised that she was able to enjoy a full 48 hours odor-free. This was huge! For the first time in over two years, she was free.
That’s when her life changed yet again. But this time, it was a welcome change that came along with relief and freedom from constant worry and self-consciousness.
