Your journey is incredibly compelling. So many of us, when faced with such a diagnosis, would turn inward. Yet you turned outward, focusing not just on your own treatments and prognosis, but on helping other women who are in the same situation you are.
How long has it been since you started the group? How many women participate? Have you found that it has taken on a life of its own now, helping women that otherwise you would never even have met?
And I would like to echo Alison's request for more of your personal story. How did you find out about your cancer?
