Orlando Police Department Presents Breast Cancer Survivor/Officer Pink Patrol Car.

She was first diagnosed with Stage 3 breast cancer in 2007 at the age of 33. She had to undergo a double mastectomy, six months of chemotherapy and seven weeks of radiation. About two months before her five-year anniversary, the cancer came back.

Now Officer Karen Long is battling stage 4 breast cancer for a 2nd time but that doesn't stop her from doing what she loves...being an officer for the Orlando, FL police department.

To honor Officer Long's battle with breast cancer, the Orlando Police Department presented long with a brand new custom pink patrol cruiser.

Long said she continues to work hard because “I get to support a lot of people that are going through this and be kind of like their ambassador and tell them, ‘There is still hope, you can still live with this disease.’”

She said her greatest support came from her 11-year-old son, Samuel, who she calls her “little rock.”

“You are the reason I’m going to make sure that I beat this thing,” Long told her son. “Because I’m going to dance at your wedding.”

Hats off to Orlando PD for helping bring awareness to such a horrible disease. And hats off to Officer Long for continuing her fight while patrolling the streets of Orlando keeping people safe.
