"Tell me, what is it you plan to do.
With your one wild and precious life?" --Mary Oliver
Finding a Way Back
Breast cancer does not ask you if it is part of your plan for life. When the diagnosis comes, your plans must change to accommodate. And how do women find their way back into life without cancer as it's center point? Colleen Webster, a DailyGood reader, shares her experience leading a retreat she organized for breast cancer survivors where she had to travel a similar journey. While she planned for a beautiful spring weekend of warmth and sun, what she got was a rain-soaked gift of new life emerging from the mud. Read her essay and discover how a group of women with new life ahead of them began to emerge from the chrysalis of cancer.
