Summertime Tips |
|
Summer can be the best of times, and the worst of times, especially if you're in breast cancer treatment or recovery. It's a time to enjoy the outdoors, go on vacation, and spend time with family and friends.
But it can also be a time of self-conscious worrying: How will you look in a bathing suit? Will the breast form stay in place? Are all the scars covered? Are you allowed to go out in the sun? If you're wearing a wig, can you still enjoy the pool or beach? And how can you schedule all those treatments AND take the long-awaited and much-needed vacation?
