By the grace of our Heavenly Father have survived breast cancer. Had been given a two year timeline that should have expired this past September, 2024... turned 60 in November and extremely happy and thankful...

Image dedicated for all those who suffer from breast cancer!

(and I have seen so many...)

 

"On this sheet Dear Lord

I write a prayer.

Better leave it blank

and let the silence speak

love is deep inside

and not in a made-up sense."

Thank you all so much for Explore April 29, 2022 ♥

At some time in our lives we a get a wake-up call. It gives us a shake and a slap which reawakens our senses. My dear wife Judith will survive the breast cancer but I find myself holding simple items of hers like these earrings and thinking "What if ......"

 

I Almost Lost You

Music and Lyrics by Rosie Gaines, Frances Jules, & LaToya Gaines

 

I had a dream woke up in a cold sweat

scared me so much I'll never forget

I opened my eyes thank God you were still there

lost in my dream searching the sky

felt so alone I started to cry

I opened my eyes you're still asleep

I asked the lord you-n-my soul to keep

floating together up in the sky

if this is a dream then I'm wondering why

I had a dream I almost lost you

I had a dream I almost lost you

I had a dream I almost lost you

the doctors always refer to the radiation treatments as the easy part of the cancer treatment... i guess nothing is easy about cancer... after 28 treatments over 5.5 weeks... the radiation did its job as you can see by the nasty red burn... the good news is that v finished the radiation treatments on tuesday... so the cancer has officially had its butt kicked... YAY!! all that's left is cosmetic reconstruction... v&i meet with her plastic surgeon in a few weeks... he'll assess the radiation damage and determine when he can complete the reconstruction... it will likely be this fall...

 

we plan to do a little celebrating this weekend... (and if you look closely... v's hair is making a nice comeback!!)

I am happy to report that Eeyore's gloomy cloud is lifting...the mood I was in last week seems to be lifting :) I have been blessed by family and friends who have once again helped me in so many ways. Tom and Friends have helped with errands and grocery shopping, driving Katie to and from school, driving Anthony from school, meals, and listening to me vent. The kids have also been great sports about helping with cooking, laundry, trash, putting away groceries, etc. Thank you ALL! (And, Auntie Ann will be here later today - I'll thank her in advance!)

It is a terrifying statistic that one in nine women will develop breast cancer at some point in their lives. It's breast cancer awareness month this month. If you get a chance please look at this page - www.cancerresearchuk.org/breastcancer/ and show your support

 

You say you'll give me

Eyes in a moon of blindness

A river in a time of dryness

A harbour in the tempest

But all the promises we make

From the cradle to the grave

When all I want is you

LEARN MORE ABOUT IT.

PROTECT YOURSELF OR YOUR FAMILY.

My Mom is a Breast Cancer survivor, I was about 11 when she got sick and that was really hard time for me and my family. She was strong enough to get true her illness without showing us that something was wrong, back then I didn't understand how much willpower and strength it took, but now I do and in my opinion that was very heroic.

My Mother is true Amazon

Thank You Mom

"During chemo, you're more tired than you've ever been. It's like a cloud passing over the sun, and suddenly you're out. You don't know how you'll answer the door when your groceries are delivered. But you also find that you're stronger than you've ever been. You're clear. Your mortality is at optimal distance, not up so close that it obscures everything else, but close enough to give you depth perception. Previously, it has taken you weeks, months, or years to discover the meaning of an experience. Now it's instantaneous."

Let’s show unity in the fight against breast cancer. These crafted ceramics, shaped as feminine torsos, are available in four diverse skin tones, representing the beautiful diversity of women. Whether as a stand alone piece or as a vase, the item serves as a gentle reminder that no woman faces this journey alone.

 

Why early screening matters: Did you know that early detection of breast cancer increases the 5-year survival rate to 99%? Regular screenings and mammograms are crucial for catching cancer in its earliest stages, when it’s most treatable.

 

Women’s health is our passion. We believe in supporting all women, as a tribute to the battles fought and won, as well as to those still ongoing. Let this ceramic be a message of hope and encouragement.

 

Show the women in your life that you stand with them.

 

Encouraging Words: You are brave. You are strong. You are never alone.

 

Let’s spread awareness 💓

Welcome Home,

 

CHAI.

Look into my eye. See what I see?

Sculptures by Alice Woodruff.

Let's hope that someday there will be a cure to this stressful disease.

"For MY WINNERS Group Contest "

Because my art is my therapy and helps me to deal with my emotions, I have created this piece in honor of my very dear old friend who has been fighting breast cancer and sadly cancer will not let go of her. She is being called home, free from pain and able to shine her beautiful light down on us.

This portrait photo, recently discovered anew in a photo archive, was surely taken by our father. He loved photography as a hobby.

 

No post-processing program for him to clone anything out, add anything in and I am claiming the tiniest share in this work by scanning in the original b&w print, cloning out the back of the chair and adding a simple frame to the photo.

The unforgotten. Once upon a time, the people who mattered to us

   

Because it's an ongoing fight...

Because it may be a fight of someone next door to us...

Because it concerns everyone: women, children... even men...

The Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Near Joliet, Illinois. Oct. 2015.

This picture is an homage to all those women who are in these moments feeling the hardship of chemotherapies. For those who are seeing how their skin darkens because of the radiotherapies’ burns. For those whose hair is falling little by little, for those who are mothers and turn to see their children, thinking that maybe soon they won’t see them again. For those who think that life is over, just because they have lost one of her breasts or both. For those who face these hard moments by themeselves. For those whose partners have abandoned them, just because they don’t fullfill the requirements o a perfect body. For those who see their sisters, their mothers, their sisters, their nieces or any other family member or friend struggling with all their strenght to win the battle against this disease.

 

It’s been 10 years this month since I was diagnosed with breast cancer. This year I post for the first time a picture of me showing my body, after going through 6 operations.

 

Many times people have left comments about my physique, words that I thank infinitely. Those photos are and will be an acknowledgement to all those women who have gone through this disease.

 

A woman does not stop being a woman just because she has a different “body”. My life is and has been wonderful. This month, medication for this disease has been stopped for me, and once again, a new life begins.

 

This picture is dedicated to my daughter, for her courage, for her love and her smiles, for being by my side every second, and for being the greatest motivation for me to fight an all-out war. For her tears, for her dreams and her smiles, THANK YOU, ALEJANDRA.

 

For my mom, who with all the pain on her heart, and her saddened eyes sae her daughter coming in and out of the operating room. For her, for healing my wounds, for helping me get dressed, for helping me to move, and for beinf always there by my side, fighting for me to eat, for me not to lose my smile, not to loose may battle. THANKS MOTHER.

 

To my doctors, who in the end didn’t even charge me, because I did not have the Money to pay them, To my friends who helped me with every peso they could afford for me to keep fighting to stay alive.

 

But most of all to God, because he never went away from me, and always gave strenght to push on.

 

To all of you, who have taken the time to read all this, for following me in this gallery, and most of all for your friendship.

Nath

P.S. I need to give you all a huge apology. This photo does not accept comments. I’m leaving the “notes” box open, in case you wish to leave a message to all the women that are today or have been in the past cancer patients.

Esta foto es un homenaje para aquellas mujeres que en estos momentos siente los embates de las quimioterapias. Para aquellas que ven como su piel se oscurece por las quemaduras de las radioterapias. Para aquellas que su cabello está cayendo poco a poco, para aquellas que son madres y voltean a ver a sus hijos pensando que quizá muy pronto no volverá a verlos. Para aquellas que piensan que la vida se ha acabado solo porque tienen un seno o quizá no tienen ninguno. Para aquellas quienes enfrentan solas estos momentos tan difíciles. Para aquellas a quienes su pareja las ha abandonado “solo” porque ya no cumple con los requisitos de un cuerpo perfecto. Para aquellas que ven a sus hijas, sus madres, hermanas, sobrinas o cualquier familiar o amiga luchando con todas sus fuerzas para ganarle la batalla a esta enfermedad.

 

Este mes se cumplen diez años que me detectaron cáncer de mama. Este años por primera vez hago publica una fotografía mía mostrando mi cuerpo después de haber pasado por 6 operaciones

 

Muchas veces han dejado comentarios respecto a mi aspecto físico, palabras que agradezco infinitamente. Dichas fotos son y serán un reconocimiento a todas aquellas mujeres que han pasado por esta enfermedad.

 

Una mujer no deja de ser mujer solo por tener un cuerpo “diferente”. Mi vida es y ha sido maravillosa. Este mes, me han retirado los medicamentos para esta enfermedad y comienza una vez más, una nueva vida.

 

Esta foto está dedicada a mi hija, por su valentía y fuerza, por su cariño y sus sonrisas, por estar a mi lado cada segundo y por ser el motivo más grande para que yo luchara a brazo partido. Por sus lágrimas, por sus sueños por sus sonrisas. GRACIAS ALEJANDRA

 

Para mi mamá, quien con todo el dolor de su corazón y sus ojos tristes vio como su hija entraba y salía de quirófano. Para ella, por curar mis heridas, por ayudarme a vestir, a moverme y estar siempre ahí sentada a mi lado luchando por que comiera, porque no perdiera la sonrisa, porque no perdiera la batalla. GRACIAS MADRE.

 

A mis doctores que al final ya no me cobraban porque yo ya no tenía para pagarle. A mis amigos que cooperaron con cada peso que podían para que yo siguiera luchando por seguir en esta vida.

 

Pero sobre todo a Dios, porque nunca se alejó de mí y siempre me dio fuerza para seguir.

 

A ustedes, que se han tomado la molestia de leer todo esto, por seguirme en esta galería y sobre todo por su amistad.

-La realidad es aquella que tu mente ve-

Nath

  

P.D. Les pido una disculpa muy grande. Esta foto no acepta comentarios. Dejo activado la casilla de “notas” por si desean dejar un mensaje a todas las mujeres que hoy son o han sido pacientes de cáncer.

Gracias

I just was invited to this group and read some stories of brave women there.

My love to you all girls... :)

. If I can encourage only one lady out there to check themselves its worth it. One in three ladies get such cancers. Get checked out. Catch it early and its fully treatable OK? Also Google for a new product called Breastlight. Here is a good link with instructions and a great video :

Last year my wife Judith got the cancer in both breasts. It was caught early and after surgery and continuing medication all looks well ... touch wood :o) All you ladies out there please be aware and check yourselves regulary, you guys tell your wives and girlfriends. We all think it happens to someone else right? Please be aware :o)

  

On a visit to Flemington NJ, The NS Lehigh Line I caught NS 211 heading west. Toward the rear of the train was the Hub Group Bright Pink Breast Cancer Awareness Cause Container. Approximately 282,000 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer in 2021. 44,000 will lose their battle. My wife is one of the lucky ones.

Thank You Hub Group

i know it was part of the collage... but i think it should stand on its own...

Our household was rocked by a diagnosis of an aggressive breast cancer. By early March, we knew that Sue was going to get a double mastectomy. We decided to visually mark the transformation.

 

Sue had begun wearing a wrap to help with the pain. We went to Mt. Pisgah on a sunny, late winter day.
