Writing Through It

Journaling always made me feel a sense of relief so it was no wonder, when I was diagnosed with breast cancer at the age of 34, that I put my thoughts onto paper with the intention of writing a memoir. I wanted young women to know that breast cancer was no longer their grandmother?s disease and that it didn?t have to be a period. It could be a comma. With all the drama I went through (being a divorcee, remarrying my ex-husband days before my mastectomy, becoming a divorcee again, and climbing the corporate ladder all while battling breast cancer and striving to make it to the five-year cancer-free mark), I knew my book would be a page turner.
