CURE MAGAZINE
I have written some for Cure Today both to make sense of my experiences and to help others with their cancer journeys. Archived "Voices" contributions may be found at CURE, a publication for cancer patients, survivors, and caregivers. You will find other great advice from various survivors with a range of cancer experiences as well. Here are links to samples, writing from the heart that I have shared to help give back to the cancer community that has helped me to survive:
  • Dealing with Lymphedema in the Home Office
  • What I Did Wrong: Advice for Future Cancer Survivors
  • How to Pray About Cancer (Without Upsetting Everybody)​
  • How I'm Handling Pinktober this Year
  • Nudes and Breast Cancer: Personal Documentary and Art
  • Breast Cancer and Dementia: One Caregiver's Story
  • Advice on Learning to Listen, or Not, after the Cancer Diagnosis
  • Team Spirit for Team Cancer
