Army of Women is asking breast cancer survivors to send in their stories on video:

As we approach Breast Cancer Awareness Month, we know one thing for sure—your personal stories encourage people to move from awareness and into action! That's why we're preparing to launch our new "It Takes an Army" Video Project. It’s an opportunity for you to share your story with others and to motivate them to join the Army of Women and get involved in breast cancer research.

Breast cancer is not a man or woman's disease—it's a family disease. So, we want to hear ALL of your stories. Your call to action is simple: Turn on your video camera and tell us two things:

First, tell us about the moment you knew breast cancer had changed your life.
Then, tell us about the moment you knew your life could change breast cancer.
In October, we'll begin showcasing the videos on our Army of Women blog and we also encourage you to use your videos as your personal tool to educate your friends and family about the importance of breast cancer research.
Learn more about how to share your video story with us here: http://www.armyofwomen.org/It_Takes_an_Army_Project (http://mailing.armyofwomen.org/rd/9z1zes1iong9ochv6qlgclrfsg7hakutu067volkse8)
DEADLINE: If you would like to be included in our first set of featured videos, please submit your video to us by Friday, September 23. Videos will continue to be accepted and featured in the coming months.

Jackie,
This sounds like a great project. Any of you ladies planning to make a video? Even if you don't upload it to the AOW site...maybe you'd consider uploading it here...for your HER2 pals to view??
I, for one, would love to hear your stories, in your own voices.
Denise

If I can figure out the technical aspect of uploading the video I will submit a video. Sounds like a fun project, like to hear others stories helps with the emotional aspect of this journey.
