Pam McKelvy, we salute you.
WMC-TV news anchor Pam McKelvy had a double mastectomy in February 2012.
She underwent chemotherapy during which she lost her hair, and she has been wearing a wig while broadcasting since last March.
But on Wednesday, she took off the wig.
She said: “I want everybody to know that no matter what you go through, it’s not about what’s on the outside, it’s about what’s on the inside. And I feel that on the inside I am more radiant and beautiful than I’ve ever been."

And she went on to say:
“I made my choice also because I thought about the message I send to young women about confidence and self-acceptance.”

She stopped working in news when her son, who has autism, was born. When he was in school she went back to work, only to be diagnosed with breast cancer.
