New York Magazine's "The Survivor Monologues"

Filed in archive Miscellany on May 25, 2007

Over at B5media, I also have a blog under their Science and Health Channel, at Cancer Commentary, which I co-blog with breast cancer survivor Robin Dunn Bryant.

Blogging with Robin, in the very short time that I've "known" her, taught me tons of what a cancer patient goes through not only with dealing with the cancer treatment but also in how to go about with just about everything else in one's daily life - finances, family, work, etc. Needless to say, Robin has put a face and a personality to Cancer Commentary.

Anyways, every cancer story is unique. But hearing and reading about any cancer story still teaches each one of us of tremendous strength and hope in every cancer patient.

magazine is its May 28th issue (but now in newsstands) pays homage to cancer patients by compiling in this current issue 16 unique cancer stories in "The Survivor Monoloques".

[First-person accounts of the surreal emergencies, suppressed marital stresses, comforting superstitions, petty irritations, spontaneous epiphanies, and other moment-to-moment means by which cancer-the ultimate life-altering experience-goes about its business of altering lives.]

Check it out: The Survivor Monologues.
