DebbY Does Chemo

(A Blog about Breast Cancer, but Funnier)

Battling Cancer (as imagined by me and Copilot (Generative AI)

In early September 2016, I was diagnosed with Stage 3 breast cancer. I had plans—a growing dog-related business, a 20+-year career in proposal management, a passion for European travel, family and friends—and cancer took a big crappola on all of that. This blog captures my experience with cancer—doubt, diarrhea, dark days, and even delight (at times)—and into recovery.

Even though the blog was written several years ago—I think it’s still relevant to anyone wanting a front row seat to what it’s like to look cancer in the hairy eyeball.

The blog isn’t dead, though I do post less frequently! I write as the spirit moves me. So, please do subscribe. And, I’d also love it if you’d hop on over to my other blog on this page: Debby Does Destinations.
