Community highlights
There has been lots of conversation this week in the online network about radiation, mastectomy and reconstruction. Thank you for sharing your experiences and helping support other members with their questions. In case you didn't know, we have a private group in the online network dedicated to this topic: Choosing breast reconstruction.
I'm sure you will all agree it's really nice to see some of our members popping back online to let us know how they are doing.

This is Colette Haymes: mother of two, loving wife, and, as
of this Sunday, BRAVE SKYDIVER! This weekend, Colette is jumping out of a plane
in Barwon Heads to raise money for BCNA to support all Australians affected by
breast cancer. It’s her way of saying thank you for the support she received
from BCNA when she was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2012.
News & events
Together with Palliative Care Australia (PCA), BCNA is proud to launch the online Palliative Care Toolkit for people living with metastatic breast cancer.
As a man who has had breast cancer, the worst part is the feeling of isolation. Giles reveals what it’s like to have a double mastectomy. (Image-metro.co.uk.)
Breast reconstruction decision making tool BRECONDA is having a positive impact in the community!
If you haven't visited the Creative Corner lately, this is what you have missed out on! We just love this drawing by @InkPetal.
On that note, I'm going to tell the people that matter the most just how much they mean to me! Let's spread some more love around.
Have a wonderful weekend everyone!
