Hi, my name is Laura. I like to think I am a pretty normal 23 year old. Shopping, laughing and beautifying are a big part of my life. On 23rd November 2012 I was diagnosed with breast cancer and my whole life changed. I vowed to make my battle with the big C as short and fun as possible. I blog about my journey to remind you lot to check your boobies, raise awareness and tell my story.
Hi, I discovered in April 2013 a breast cancer and. Between June and July I did 3 chemotherapy and now I finished radiotherapy. We cared about the same time. Now I hope to be out of this "tunnel" that was hard but finally it's finished! a big hug from those who can really understand you kisses
Hello, my name is Angel, I'm writing from Italy. I found your blog through a newspaper in my city, Naples. I read what you wrote and I hit your strength and your courage in this bad thing. Work at the hospital and I see a lot of guys like you. What can I say, I wish you all the best and luck in the world. kisses P.S. sorry for my english by automatic translator ;-)
Hello, I also discovered your blog through my local news. My mother had breast cancer before, although she didn't quite take a "fun" attitude as you have :), she stayed positive throughout the whole treatment and now she's fully recovered.
Anyway I think you've crafted a great story on your blog, I was wondering whether you will be interested in compiling the blog posts into an ebook. If so, come check out our website: www.towerbabel.com . We are always looking for inspiring and fun content.
What a lovely positive blog. I love the title. The myth of 'battling' the disease can be cruel one, how does one battle anything one can't see? The answer? One lives, one does what you do, one makes the life from the experience. My attitude is not to let the dam' condition have too much attention. The cancer is not me, it's something about me, that's all, whatever the outcome. Don't give it houseroom, accept and go on. Just as you are doing. Be in your body as much as you can. You are doing fine. Big hugs

Make your choice and we'll send you one with our compliments. Just email on info@chemoheadscarves.com. We know how important it is to boost your confidence - go for it. Stay positive.

We're on the same mission! but it gives me hope to see that you're doing good :)

Hello, Laura, I'm from Carolina, Puerto Rico. I pray to God to give you good health and live many years.
My older sister, Felita, did not survive the terrible cancer that gave. I sympathize with people who have cancer and I pray to God not to go through what my step sister and our family.
I like your blog and although I use the google translator to read the sections, the really enjoy.

I have discovered your diary through an online portal for women here in Hungary. I have been through the same this year, I am a bit older than you are but still on the younger side. Having been through the same ordeal (surgery, chemotherapy, radiation, Tamoxifen) and having it behind me by now (except for the Tamoxifen, which I have to take for 5 years just like you) , I can only encourage you to keep up your positive spirit. You will be over this and your life will return back to normality.
I wish you all the best! Your cancersister (if I may say so)
thank you for your blog! You are a strong and impressive girl!!! I'm also only 24 years old and I'm happy you share your story to raise awareness about breast cancer at young age. I will pray for your healing and a lot of strength in the next weaks if I may... I also discovered that your favourite colour is pink!! Great!! Mine too! I wrote a song which is called 'pink coloured world' and I thougth maybe you would like it: Here is the link to my song and video:

I will be on stage tomorrow. I will wear pink clothes and remember you and other women that are suffering from cancer...
Hi, Laura....congrats for your blog, I think is too hard to suffer cancer being only 24 years old. I had my last chemo two weeks ago, so im happy expecting the growing of my hair, may be the most difficult for me in this time, and also, the weight increase, althouth taking care a lot in all the meals...but, everything happens and this too. And like you, I try to enjoy with new outfits, bought many hats, caps, challs, bonnets, ect. Have a nice life and thanks to share your story with all of us. Bless you! Sara from Argentina
i love your blog! I hope you make it and combatted 'kenneth' and stay strong, I have great respect from what you're doing! thank you that you let us share it, you are a great help and an angel for many sick people! god bless you laura!
I've just read [part of] your story in Love it! magazine - and it was a breath of fresh air! I'm sure you hear that all the time, must be because you are young and fresh :-) I'm a young 48 year old recently diagnosed with Triple Neg breast cancer and have just had my first chemo - keeping positive and being surrounded by people who are the same has been a huge help. I'm even tempted to pinch your idea and wear a funky pink wig every now and then [I've always loved dressing up and putting on wigs as part of my amateur dramatics hobby!] Anyway, I just wanted to say what I've said so far, and to wish you all the best in your continued road to recovery, and to thank you for being a shining light for us army of ladies who are doing battle with the big C.
