Lifting the Doona

Great work @SoldierCrab with the SBS article on the side effects of cancer treatment and the very real impact on our members sexual well being. Hope you feel very proud.

If anyone would like to read it head the article: https://www.sbs.com.au/topics/life/health/article/2018/02/26/breaking-taboos-talking-about-sexual-side-effects-breast-cancer-treatment

Cheers KP

    @SoldierCrab  everything you said in that article was so true and I want to say how much I appreciate your honesty and putting yourself out there emotionally and opening up to what it’s really like in our world. I think a lot of people think you have surgery and or chemo and that’s it “you’ll be right mate” now and that just isn’t the case. I am definitely one of those women who hate looking at my flat chest in the mirror sometimes and although I see a survivor when I look at myself and I’m VERY grateful to be here and come out the other side of this shitty disease but it still can be awful at times dealing with “the new normal”. Thankfully now I am certainly better with things than I was. Margie xx
