FTBOU has compiled a list of nonprofits that fund surgery and prosthetics for breast cancer survivors and thrivers, hoping to connect you with organizations that can help eliminate some of those burdens and rebuild your self-confidence.
Explaining a cancer diagnosis to children is never easy but it is necessary to help them cope with the current and future changes ahead.
Getting the health care you need after a breast cancer diagnosis shouldn’t break the bank. Here are some financial resources that can help ease the burden of paying for care.
Breast cancer patients need to be their own advocates when it comes to their health care. But how do you do this when you’re feeling scared and overwhelmed?
The most important lesson I’ve learned in being a breast cancer survivor is that I can do things on my terms and define what survivorship looks like for me.
When you finish treatment, no one really speaks about survivorship. There is no road map or guide.
I am self-conscious of certain things, no matter how strong I may appear.
Starting with myself, if I realign my thoughts about the things that I cannot control, it will reduce the negative impact this disease can have on myself and those who love me.
Survivorship is less about accepting a “new norm” and more about destroying fear of the “abnormal” condition of disease.
If you are someone who is struggling or has struggled through the pain of breast cancer, then now more than ever, you need to practice self-love and self-care in order to fully heal for yourselves and for those who love you.
Your voice, your story, and your support can make a difference. Join For the Breast of Us in our mission to empower, support, and advocate for women of color across the globe. Together, we can create a future where every woman has the resources and support she needs to overcome breast cancer.
