Bad Right Breast

For Sarah, she was just starting to begin a new as an artist, but when cancer came into her life, not once but twice, she was forced to take a step back.  And only then, was she able to move forward.

Erin is a visual artist, who actually dealt with 2 bouts of melanoma diagnosis and treatment before being diagnosed with breast cancer.  It was then that she brought breast cancer into her artwork.

Brianna was 24 when she was diagnosed with Hodgkin’s Lymphoma.  She was getting her start in LA as a screenwriter, making stories about other people.  She always lived her live with a pen in one hand and a camera in the other.  But when diagnosed, she turned the camera onto herself, and then the real magic began.

Christina is a theater educator, but has had to educate herself on one of the most rare cancers – Desmoid Fibromatosis.  But you would never know from her smile, her laugh, and her energy that she has been affected by cancer.

Laurie shares the story of what it was like to suffer from an Arterial Thrombosis, aka a stroke, back in August, and how the incident and recovery once again as tested her physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually.  So fortunate in so many ways, but also left with the forever guilt.

After several months off, we are coming back next week with all new episodes, starting with what happened to me back in August – all thanks to cancer.  We’re then going to dive into Artists with Cancer – women in the arts – who found out they had cancer, and not just breast cancer.  How they worked through their diagnosis, treatment and recovery.  

Then we’ll hear Motherless Daughters - women who lost their mothers at a young age, due to breast cancer.

We’re still on the lookout for women living with metastatic breast cancer who want to tell their stories, hoping to add these to the next series to share with you.

So join us next week!  Until then – listen to your body and take care of yourself.

Shanice is a vibrant young woman, who first felt her lump at the age of 23.  After overcoming everything involved with Stage 3 Breast Cancer, she did something that most ‘average’ people don’t have the courage to even attempt.  And then years later out of the blue, she started feeling pain, but no one would listen to her.  So she had to make them.  

Listen to Shanice on her podcast – Love, Her Will:  The New Voice of Willpower with Shanice J.  and follow her on Instagram.

It’s been one year since the start of Bad Right Breast, and we’re going to take a summer hiatus after next week’s episode.  We’re preparing to return in the fall with three new series:  Motherless Daughters, Artists’ Stories & Meta Stories.  If you feel you have a story to tell in any of these categories, please reach out to us as we’d love to share it.  Next week, will be our first episode in the Meta Stories series.

This is the LAST episode of the original THEIR STORIES series.  When you’re diagnosed with breast cancer, there’s not some magic switch that turns on and you all of a sudden become a supreme being.  You’re still the same person as you were before, just dealt with a horrible diagnosis, and forced to go through some really tough shit.  I asked each of our first 15 volunteers what they thought of the words – survivor, warrior, hero - when it came to them and their cancer.

Adina is the reason there are inconsistencies in the number of first volunteers for the THEIR STORIES series.  There are a couple of places in which I say there were 14 interviews, and then Adina got back to me and became the 15th.  I didn’t care about the inconsistencies, as with a secondary diagnosis my new perspective sometimes is – oh well.  I knew Adina was well worth it. You’ll hear why for yourself.
