October might be ending, breast cancer awareness should not....



On this last day of October, I received a newsletter in my Inbox. As you will see the narrative points out that those who have NF-1 (Neurofibromatosis Type One) have an increased risk of breast cancer.

I have NF-1 and this is something I had already learned the hard way for my 2024 breast cancer diagnosis indicated an IMMEDIATE  need for a mastectomy before the cancer spread. 

That surgery took place this past April and I've been having follow-up appointments with my oncologist as we'll as a very invasive foot surgery that occurred this past August.

It's been quite a year.  

In any event these health issues have put yet another pause on my longstanding book project, Imperfect Strangers, but I will get back to it as soon as I am able. 

Stay tuned.
