I have cancer. These are not easy words to say out loud — even to yourself — let alone to your loved ones.

Others don’t even let their significant other in on the news until they have had a biopsy. Whatever works best for each of us.
However we approach it, according to a recent survey by Breast Cancer Canada, 87 percent of respondents felt unprepared when they or a loved one received their breast cancer diagnosis.
