The Breast Cancer Diaries
Hi all... I am thrilled to have my film, The Breast Cancer Diaries, on AOL's True Stories. When you've come through a journey as life-changing as mine, you want other people to get the chance to let it seep into their lives, too. I don't want any of you to get cancer, but I want you to be a part of the amazing changes that happen to your world when something so earth-shattering hits. I don't want you to have the pain, but I'd like to share the gain with you; that's what I hope happens when you sit down to watch "The Breast Cancer Diaries." I know we're all busy, we have families, we have jobs, we have pressures and we have responsibilities. All of these things can make us feel worn down, or worried, weary of our own selves and the pressures we put ourselves under. That's when a good film can help; it can get you out of your world long enough to change your perspective on something, to bring you insight you couldn't otherwise get, and to leave you feeling a bit better about your own life and your own future. If you give The Breast Cancer Diaries 78 minutes of your time, you won't be the same person you were 78 minutes ago.

(Page 1)2. I absolutely LOVED this film! I, too, had gone through breast cancer treatment (mastectomy, chemo and radiation) with 2 kids, then-ages 2 and 7. Ann's film brought back all of those memories. The film made me smile, laugh, and cry. Thank you, Ann, for documenting your experience and thoughts and sharing it with us.
