An after mastectomy shirt for feeling normal during recovery

I was diagnosed with breast cancer a month before my 40th birthday. Instead of planning a big party, I was having a double mastectomy with the first steps towards breast reconstruction. It was the fastest 2 week of my life from diagnosis to surgery. I didn’t have time to come up with questions because I […]

Chemo Beanies: Helping women feel stylish, comfortable and secure after hairloss

Adrienne Metz’s path to entrepreneurship began after two of her aunts underwent chemotherapy for breast cancer. Losing their hair as part of the treatment, they said, was one of the most devastating effects. They felt so vain and so embarrassed to say it, but they said, “The hardest thing was when I lost my hair.” […]

New Year, New Habits

With the holidays behind us, it’s time to consider starting the New Year with some new or renewed habits. One of best things we can all do for ourselves is to eat a healthy diet that is full of fruits, vegetables and whole grains. The American Cancer Society suggests the following: Choose foods and drinks […]

'Out Living It' with First Descents

Have you ever wanted to scale a massive rock and look like an effortless, graceful spiderman while doing so? How about dominating a white water rapid by stabbing it with a paddle while in a kayak? Maybe showing a wave who’s boss by surfing it with supreme swagger is more of your style. I had […]

The Heroines Choir

Cancer, like any other life threatening trauma, changes your perspective about life indelibly. Some remain defined by it, while others confront their mortality and find a new way of living, often driven by gratitude. The latter serve as the basis for our very special support group, The Heroines Choir. We don’t deny that the stages […]

HATventures of Hope

After my best friend Lindsay’s 2010 breast cancer diagnosis at age 28, my eyes were opened to the world of cancer. Her diagnosis was shocking, given her young age and healthy lifestyle. I watched a community rally around her while she navigated her way through this unexpected diagnosis and was incredibly inspired. I learned through […]

We are pleased to announce that Sacred Rites Tattoo Bradenton will begin offering free areola tattoos for women who have undergone a mastectomy in relation to breast cancer. This offer will be available to anyone cleared by their doctor starting December 1st, 2015. As head artist and co-owner of Sacred Rites Tattoo Bradenton, I, Michael […]

Hope for Maintaining Fertility Beyond Cancer Treatment

There is new hope for young women diagnosed with early-stage breast cancer who are concerned about the impacts of cancer treatment drugs on their future ability to have children. For many young women undergoing breast cancer treatment, fertility and the ability to have children after cancer treatment are major concerns. Some types of chemotherapy can […]

Urine Tests for Breast Cancer Detection

Rumors abound regarding what ostensibly causes and cures breast cancer, so I have generally ignored headlines about urine tests for breast cancer detection. It’s not that I doubt the possibility, I just know that mainstream news headlines are written to grab attention our attention and that most link to less than useful news. When such […]

Living Dynamically with Metastatic Disease

Write something inspirational about metastatic cancer. That is my pursuit. One might respond, what in the world could be inspirational about an incurable stage of cancer? Well, before I can answer that question, I feel that I must tell you about myself, so you know I am somewhat qualified to speak on the subject. I […]

What Comes After “Cancer-Free”

The day you are declared cancer-free, everyone sighs a deep sigh of relief. They tell you it’s all okay now, time to celebrate and move on with your life. What they don’t know is that on that day, the day you are declared cancer-free, that’s when the long-term challenge begins. As everybody touched by your […]

Timing of Menopause Tied to Chemicals in Women's Bodies

Early puberty, obesity, and breast cancer risk are among the growing list of women’s health outcomes that scientists are linking to chemicals in our environment and in our bodies. Now add early menopause to that list. Scientists have found an association between early menopause and high levels of certain chemicals, such as phthalates and certain […]

Does CAD Improve Mammograms?

Computer-aided detection (CAD) is the use of computer programs to help highlight areas on mammogram images that may be abnormal. It’s up to the radiologist to determine whether-or-not such highlighted areas are actually abnormal. In a recent study, researchers explored the added value of CAD for identifying abnormalities on digital screening mammograms. The findings not […]

Trans-Pacific Partnership Bad News for Breast Cancer Patients

Referred to as a “free trade” agreement, we are being kept in the dark regarding this secretive pact between global corporations. Despite the fact that our lives will be greatly impacted by this agreement, we are not allowed to see the draft text, and even our Representatives in Congress have been provided extremely limited access. […]

Remembering Norma Choosing Hope

“I will only surround myself with positive speaking people,” said a young woman wearing a pink scarf tied around her head that matched her sweat shirt. It was the first day of my Expressive Writing class at the Center when Norma introduced herself. Both of us were new to the Center For Building Hope. […]

Wrapped In Love

Wrapped in Love was inspired by my mom when she was in the hospital before she passed away. It was Christmas eve, and my mom said she didn’t want any visitors as she felt she looked too bad in her state of illness. I felt helpless, so I decided to make her a wrap that […]

What’s Next After Cancer Treatment Ends? Choosing to Live What Matters

18 years ago the only thing that mattered to me during breast cancer treatment was getting to the end. To be done with cancer so my life could go back to normal. After multiple surgeries and rounds of chemo the magic day finally arrived. I was done with ready to go back to the real […]

Awareness to Education

Each time October rolls around I feel conflicted. The Breast Cancer Awareness Month message of prevention and early detection is a beautiful dream. I wish it had come true for me. But it did not. Early detection failed me– at 38, I was too young for a mammogram. Even the breast surgeon couldn’t feel the […]

Breast Prosthesis after Reconstruction

Breast reconstruction is one of many difficult decisions a woman will face with breast cancer and breast surgery. For some women, the desire to have the size, look, and feel of her natural breast restored as closely as possible is extremely important to her emotional recovery. Unfortunately, the desired results cannot be guaranteed. Yes, many […]

Bovine Leukemia Virus and Human Breast Cancer Risk

Holy Cow-Cancer! Scientists from the University of California – Berkeley compared the presence of bovine leukemia virus (BLV) in women with breast cancer to samples taken from women without breast cancer. They found BLV to be twice as common in the samples of women with breast cancer. Up until 2014, scientists didn’t believe BLV could […]
