I would never call myself a cancer survivor because I think it devalues those who do not survive. There's this whole mythology that people bravely battle their cancer and then they become survivors. Well, the ones who don't survive may be just as bra...
My son died from cancer. My granddaughter died from cancer. I have a lot of reasons to think that reality is not a friendly neighborhood. And the stories that I tell distract me, and if I do the job right, they distract people from things that are ha...
As a teenager, I had big breasts for my age, and my friends cracked on me a lot.
Indulge not thyself in the passion of anger; it is whetting a sword to wound thine own breast, or murder thy friend.
Breast implants gross me out. I don't think they're attractive at all.
It's my body. And I like my body. And I like my breasts. And no, they're not fake.
A babe at the breast is as much pleasure as the bearing is pain.
If to have breasts is to be human, then to save them is to save ourselves.
To smile at the jest which plants a thorn in another's breast is to become a principal in the mischief.
Suppressed grief suffocates, it rages within the breast, and is forced to multiply its strength.
E-mails are the cancer of modern business.
Movies are fun, but they are no cure for cancer.

It's a scary word, 'cancer.'
I can't say this strongly enough, but our feelings about ourselves are actually the most important barometer for determining the condition of our lives!
I have no regrets. I had an amazing surrogate who carried my son for me. I am so grateful to her. I can even say I am grateful for having cancer. I was always meant to be a mom, but if I didn't have cancer, I never would have had Zev. I would have ha...
Even now, it's still hard for him to say it. I don't blame him. It's an icky word. Why couldn't whoever was in charge of naming things call cancer 'sugar' and sugar, 'cancer'? People might not eat so much of the stuff then. And it's so much more plea...
It is in the quiet moments of reflection that we can gain a greater feeling of hope when we remember and recognize all the positive things that are happening during this time of great difficulty.
