Mary:

I will be very honest. I didn’t counter the side effects because the medical profession was not honest with me that I would have them, and I am a single woman, so it really affected my personal and dating life. And that’s something that people have, you know, they see you’re healed, you look great and all that, and you feel great. I have no fear of dying of cancer because what good does that do anyway, but there’s quality of life issues that it affects, and they are the most personal things. So it’s hard to talk about them, and that’s what makes it so difficult. So, that’s what I love about this is that we’re making it okay to talk about it, and we’re making it okay to ask the question.
