2004, age 34 — this is my story

A Little Piece of My Cancer Story

I was interviewed recently by a writer at Healthmonitor for the new Guide to Chemotherapy. It’s the kind of mini-magazine you’ll find in a doctor’s office, so be on the lookout because you just might spot the glossy guide while you’re waiting, waiting, waiting to see your medical people. The 36-page publication (which is free, and you can grab one for home) is filled with so much wisdom — chemo questions are answered, side effects are addressed, nutrition is covered, date nights are encouraged, and there are two pages devoted to a piece of my story. The article, called “Circle of support, chain of love,” is about my blogging (and my wig sharing), and if you wish to read just a bit of my almost-eight-year-long journey, this is your chance. Just click, navigate to pages 22 and 23, then read.

  • Wow – I went away for a week and a half and you have been posting like a fiend! Great article and I’m not just saying that because I’m mentioned – haha. The underhair is working out great in the heat.

    Hi, Jacki:
    Thanks so much for sharing your story with us–it’s thanks to people like you, who are so generous with their stories (and their underhair) that we are able to spread a little help around.
    Stay well!
    Maria
