So do I, @Janet A you have broken new ground here and that is a wonderful thing for all of us. You deserve to fly the banner :D Time for us to stand up and be counted perhaps?Zoffiel said:@AllyJay you have nailed it.
I think BCNA has done a decent job of setting up groups. Several dont have much going on. We can set up PM threads to connect with those we identify with. Over all, public conversations, like this one, do a bloody good job of raising awareness and making us all think about the diversity of people affected by the disease. Marg
Well said, @Zoffiel. Already we have 6 pages of women contributing to this topic because they have/had breast cancer and don't have children. So, I would like to think that in a small way we are already achieving something. If just one person here has felt some connection to another or can relate to a comment spoken, then already we are gaining strength and helping each other. I know that I felt as if I "belonged" to something the moment I read the heading "Are you a breast cancer survivor who happens to be childless". Regards, Ann
