The BODY Issue, June / July 2021, Vol 6, No 3, 107 pages
We are diving deep into all the body issues that a breast cancer diagnosis brings, from surgery decisions and aftermath to grappling with hair loss. But we are also going way beyond that in this issue to other aspects of “body” to weight and body image, to eating disorders, to sexual health, and on to what it means to be feminine after facing a cancer that attacks the most female body parts. We hope you enjoy this issue and that reading it allows you to see yourself reflected back in these stories and images and know deep down that you are not alone.
