Each of us have a story.

Why would I even bother to tell mine? That's the million-dollar question.

Honestly, if it were just about me or even my husband, I wouldn't. But it's not about us.

It's about you.

And your girlfriends.

And your sisters.

And maybe even your mother.

I want to share my experience, the whole experience, with you so that if you ever have to make this decision, you'll have a little more information than you had before.

Not everyone is called to share the intimate details of their cancer journey, but I am. I've known from the beginning that if I was going to have to walk this path, other women would gain in the process. And maybe even a few men who are wondering what is going on with their wives'.
