Hi,

My aunt and my grandmother have both had breast cancer. Its a topic that interests me because its affected my family a lot. I decided to do an oral history project on it for English.

I need to interview people for 30 minutes to an hour, and I need to come up with 10 questions to ask that would give me a good idea of their experience.

Does anybody have good ideas for questions I could ask that would give me a good idea about the experience of breast cancer?

It would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

Suggested questions for your interview:

• How did you find out you had bc?
• What has been the most difficult part of this journey for you?
• What have you learned about yourself as a result of this journey?
• If you could go back and do something differently (with regards to your treatment decisions) what would it be?

Good luck with your interviews.
