The personification of cancer.
Facilitating a session recently at the C4YW conference in Orlando, FL, moved me in ways that I am still processing. This conference is for women who were diagnosed with breast cancer prior to the age of 45, and these survivors are encouraged to return to the conference for education, support, and fellowship for as long as they want. They can bring family members or friends with them and the meeting rooms and hallways are filled with laughter and tears.
