No breast cancer patient is going to find essential details about treatment from the Web sites of breast cancer organizations. We find this info from other patients. The organizations may have been founded with the best intention to end disease but each is ultimately vested in its own survival. Patient communities, on the other hand, and patients within social media, exist to help educate and help each other. Patients share freely. It is interactive, dynamic, and powerful, not a one-way street like a newspaper.
Whatever your search on breast cancer ... just add the word 'blogs' at the end. There are many cancer patients out there who keep a journal of their journey as I do.
It makes me feel good to write about my experience and to share my hopes and fears with other patients.
