It's hard to see friends pass away. Especially mothers of young children. It's hard to be confronted with our own mortality. I have had and still have those kind of moments. I think that now that more women survive breastcancer and live long and full lives after diagnosis, we should look into the psychological consequences and quality of life. Many of us need more help than we are getting.

You need a HUG. Can you feel it coming your way? All the way from the Netherlands, Europe, just for you.

Love

Jacqueline
