Dana Jennings has been writing an interesting blog for the NY Times. You can find it here

Dana sez:
In telling our cancer stories, by refusing to be silent, by declining to hide behind stoicism, we take ownership of them, maybe even have a chance to understand them. They’re our stories, and we need to insist on that fact. We shouldn’t cede them to grieving family members, mystified friends or hard-pressed doctors and nurses.
I do it to help understand what is happening and to remember since chemo has placed blanks in my memory.
