Because the discovery took place just one month before she was to compete at the USA Swimming open water nationals, surgery was postponed. Nationals served as a qualifier for the world championships, where the top two finishers would race in the 10K event that would qualify the first 10 for the Olympics. Brunemann finished fourth at nationals, qualifying for a spot on the Pan American Games team.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI was just happy to be competing (at nationals),\u201d Brunemann told Swimming World. \u201cGoing into nationals, it changed my perspective of the Olympics as the end-all, be-all to just enjoying the journey and being a part of something bigger than myself. I was thrilled with how I did after having experiencing everything that I had.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>With the Pan American Games in July on the horizon, Brunemann found the mental strength to train through the summer knowing she had lumps \u2013 albeit benign \u2013 in her breast. Her husband, <strong>Michael Klueh<\/strong>, remained a pillar of support, as did her coaches and teammates at Club Wolverine.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe grounds me,\u201d Brunemann said of Klueh. \u201cHe keeps me from worrying so much, and it\u2019s so important to have someone like that in my life.\u201d<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_109650\" style=\"width: 710px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/brunemann-klueh-e1410461041269.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-109650\" data-attachment-id=\"109650\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/dolfin-congratulates-sponsored-athletes-michael-klueh-emily-brunemann-on-wedding\/brunemann-klueh\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/brunemann-klueh-e1410461041269.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"1096,824\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"emily-brunemann-michael-klueh\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Photo Courtesy: Daily News of Open Water Swimming&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/brunemann-klueh-e1410461041269-700x500.jpg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/brunemann-klueh-e1410461041269-1024x769.jpg\" src=\"http:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/brunemann-klueh-e1410461041269-700x500.jpg\" alt=\"Emily Brunemann and Michael Klueh\" width=\"700\" height=\"500\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-109650\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-109650\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo Courtesy: Daily News of Open Water Swimming<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Brunemann was fourth in the 10K race at the Pan American Games in Toronto, then proceeded to plan for her surgery. Two weeks ago, on a trip to attend the wedding of fellow swimmer <strong>Michael McBroom<\/strong>, Brunemann received a phone call from her surgeon.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe said, \u2018We\u2019re going to need to remove another (lump),\u2019 and we were in the Atlanta airport and I just started crying,\u201d Brunemann said. \u201cIt\u2019s on your mind because there\u2019s so much unknown. You feel helpless because you can\u2019t do anything in this situation. It\u2019s not like if you have something going on with a shoulder injury or with rehab. That\u2019s the scary part about it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The surgery at University of Michigan Hospital was a success, requiring the removal of a five-centimeter mass of tissue from her breast. Brunemann is taking a couple of weeks off to recover and is excited to return to the water and resume training. As is the case with everyone who has found a lump in their breast, a successful surgery does not mean she never has to worry about lumps returning. But, she said she knows how to detect anomalies and what steps to take.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI just keep an eye on myself,\u201d she said. \u201cIt\u2019s important for people to be proactive and take ownership of their health. I know how to catch it early.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Two things stand out regarding Brunemann\u2019s health scare. First, she\u2019s in her 20s (she turns 29 on Friday), which is extremely young for a woman to find a lump of any kind in her breast. Second, her family does not have a history of breast cancer.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey say that there\u2019s a gene for breast cancer, but I still think it\u2019s important for anybody and everybody to check themselves and just be proactive,\u201d she said. \u201cYou never know what can happen. Breast cancer does not run in my family, and yet I still had to go through this.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Brunemann, who won the 1650 freestyle for the University of Michigan in 2008, attributes being an athlete as one of the reasons she was more aware that something was not right with her body, and hopes other athletes learn to take control of their health.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are very aware of our bodies, and as an athlete, you know when the littlest thing hurts,\u201d Brunemann said. \u201cYou\u2019re so hyper-aware of what\u2019s going on in your body. That\u2019s just part of our sport. For me, it was so natural to do self-exams and to be able to have that awareness.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>No one expects to have surgery to remove lumps from their
