Talking is powerful. Words relay the stories of others and advice. Reading can become therapy to certain people. When you read a story about somebody in a similar situation as you, but was worse off, it is true that most people can find comfort in their situation that is not so bad.
It is helpful to know that there are other people going through similar situations. Knowing that you are not alone is the key to being okay. "Misery needs company." If you have a hard time facing your reality being in the company of others dealing with the same time can be comforting and therapeutic. In a world of so many people, who wants to feel lonely in any aspect?
BRCA Positive is a blog that was formed in hope to raise awareness about the Breast Cancer (BRCA) genetic mutation. There are two types of BRCA mutations: BRCA I and BRCA II. People are still learning about this mutation and there are still a lot of questions about this mutation. My blog is designed to help offer support to those who are dealing with the mutation or have the possibility of testing positive for this mutation. The blog can also be for the loved ones of those who are BRCA carriers.
