Getting Over Breast Cancer

Do you think it's possible to ever fully heal following a battle with Breast Cancer? Years ago I'm not sure I would have. But here I am, not even 5 years later feeling whole again.

Battle-scarred but not battle-weary

I've now been back at school for two weeks and have had some time to gather my thoughts. The step back into "normal" life, while much anticipated, was a big one, nonetheless.
