Guest Gail May never missed getting her annual mammograms. At first, her doctor spotted something suspicious and originally diagnosed her with DCIS, and after a second MRI, her cancer had become invasive, and she was diagnosed with invasive ductal (IDC). The impact of getting a single mastectomy filled her with anxiety because she had to adjust to not being symmetrical when using the prosthetic. She learned to be comfortable in her skin again. Gail always used writing as a coping mechanism in the past. Writing poetry and short stories continues to help her cope emotionally and mentally as she processes her breast cancer experience.
