Happy Valentine’s beautiful ones! On this day recognized for love in any form or fashion, why not love yourself? If you are an active breast cancer patient, try the following:

  • Make sure you have an accountability partner for support
  • Take a walk if you feel up to it
  • Meditate on something positive
  • Vent your feelings to a safe person in your life to relieve stress
  • Take a much needed nap
  • Find a local or virtual support group for help

 

Most importantly remember you’re doing all you can to fight! Remember your BEAUTIFUL!

Hello,

I’m Cynthia

Welcome to Melanin & Pink Ribbons: A Blog for Black Women Fighting and Surviving Breast Cancer. It was born out of my personal journey as a patient not seeing very many images of women who looked like me fighting this disease. So, when I became a survivor, I did something about it. This is a space to learn and become empowered with information so we as a community can thrive into survivorship.

Let’s connect

Join the fun!
