My Careful, Joyful Life...after cancer

saraszeg

Hello Community,

I am so excited to find this discussion topic! October 11th will mark 2 years since my stage 2B breast cancer diagnosis. In the last year I've spent a lot of time thinking about what kind of survivor I want to be and putting my professional experience as a researcher/writer and yoga teacher to work developing strategies to prevent a reoccurrence and deal with the fall out from chemo, radiation, surgery, lymphodema, and reconstruction. I started a blog to help myself stay on track and provide a resource for other survivors. I would be so honored to hear what other survivors thought about it. After I finished treatment and really dove into research I had a hard time finding resources for people who were youngish, working parents, and those resources I did find scared me and emotionally set me back. This blog is my attempt to address that and to balance leading a life where I am very careful about what I eat, making sure I exercise, etc, but also have a really good time. Please visit and comment if you can. I'm sure many of you can understand how much the project means to me. The blog web address is carefuljoyful.com the blog is called My Careful, Joyful Life...after cancer.

It looks like there are tons of resources right here. I also have a section of my blog that I want to dedicate mainly to survivor's stories--"inspiration." If you're interested in sharing your story, I would love to have guest bloggers.
