Jeanne K's Breast Cancer Journey/Journal
In 2006, my wife, Jeanne K, was diagnosed with breast cancer. Click on the pink ribbon to read an account of that time. It's a journey listing it all... the fear, the questions, the emotions, the plans, the treatments... and ultimately the JOY. It's not advice, just an honest daily account of her... or as she would say... OUR journey during that time.
