Don’t forget if you have written a post which you would like readers to see, just leave a comment below.

An intriguing question from Audrey  to shart us off this week –  “what do Goldilocks and breast cancer have in common?”

I mentioned last week, that if you want a glimpse into the reality of metastatic breast cancer, Ilene‘s blog provides powerful insights. This week she writes about the bone deep painful reality of MBC.

Metastatic cancer pain exposes you for who you really are. It’s not for the weak, the faint-hearted, the complainer or the introvert afraid to stand up for themselves.

Until next week,

Yours with much love always,
