Weekly Round-Up

Happy Sunday, dear readers! I’m here to give you another roundup of the best of the blogs I’ve read this week.

As a doctor with cancer, Wendy Harpham enjoyed many advantages — except for one critical factor: knowledge about “hope.” In an article for Cure, she notes that her medical education didn’t teach her how to guide patients to discover hope or foster hope during challenging times.

Jennifer reports on the latest developments in early-stage breast cancer survivorship detailed in an updated educational book by ASCO, the American Society for Clinical Oncology.

In her latest post, Barbara advises that any amount of exercise, no matter how minimal, is beneficial.

Can you exercise with bone mets? Our MBC Life goes to the experts and people living with bone mets to find out.

Connie reflects on the self-examination of Long-Held Assumptions and how it’s never too late to correct limiting ways of thinking and replace them with an enlarged view that opens up our internal and external worlds.

Chris writes about honouring a friend’s legacy.

A reminder from Rod that breast cancer is a genderless disease.

Beth expresses her aspiration to make a statement about young women and breast cancer through her art.

Finally, this week, wishing all the Dads out there a Happy Father’s Day and sending love to those of us, like Terri, who carry fond memories of our Dads, no longer with us today. Here’s one of my favourite pics with my Dad, Thomas.

Yours with much love always
