Welcome to my blog…..

     Writing has always been a therapeutic resource for me.  My thoughts and feelings seem to clear a better path when I am writing them down.  So, when I was diagnosed with breast cancer in the spring of 2021 my natural reaction was to write.  I wanted those around me to understand the process, a process that even I wasn’t clear on.  I would never have chosen this path, no one would, but statistics say that 1 out of 8 will be diagnosed with breast cancer.  And, let’s be honest – cancer sucks! There are highs and lows, laughter and tears, strength and struggles.  No journey is the same, but my hope is that I can paint a clearer picture of this vicious rollercoaster ride called cancer. 

     Although journaling my breast cancer journey began as a way for me to come to terms with my own diagnosis, I am sharing my story so that those out there, who need to hear it, will understand that they are not alone…..because hearing the word cancer was hands down the scariest moment of my life.

     Thank you for taking the time to visit, and I hope that my journey can in some way bring you understanding, hope and even maybe a laugh or two.                                                                                                      – Kara Corrigan
