The Girlfriend's guide to breast cancer. One year later
Description
After being diagnosed with breast cancer, six women from ABC News sat down and talked about taking on their formidable enemy. This program features all six women one year later, discussing what transpired over the past twelve months and how they feel about the future. While most are in remission, two patients are still grappling with disease on a daily basis, and both take this communal opportunity to reveal the concerns, frustrations, and hopes at the core of their experiences. Among all six, a wide range of topics are explored: hair loss, premature menopause, the seemingly endless parade of medical appointments, and the life-affirming arrival of grandchildren.
