    Hello, Adriene. Welcome to our community.

     

    Your visual breast cancer diary is wonderful. Thank you for sharing this with us. What a creative way to document and share all of your experiences with chemotherapy treatment. It is the most real-life approach I've seen.

     

    Keep the photos coming and write again soon.

    Maria

    Dear Maria,

    Thank you for your kind words and support.  I am told that the pictures and words are a forward approach to the treatment and survivorship, but what I embarked upon was the only way I knew how to deal with the prognosis at the time.  Honesty.  And we all know how brutal the truth is.  Thanks again for your words and I appreciate your comment.

    Best, Adriene Hughes
