Several of our clients are featured in the documentary, STARTING THE CONVERSATION: Relationships and Breast Cancer, co-produced and written by me, the founder of COMPASSIONATE HANDS AND HEARTS BREAST CANCER OUTREACH, Vanessa Echols.
Almost every breast cancer patient has thought about this issue or talked about it in private. But until now, few have discussed it openly. That all changed with this project. Several bold breast cancer warriors stepped forward to talk about how breast cancer diagnosis and treatment affected their intimate relationships.
What they have to say is enlightening, startling and in some cases, heartbreaking. I encourage you to watch and leave your comments about the issue.

Our mission is to extend our hands and hearts to support those needing help battling breast cancer by improving the quality of life for them and their families.

STARTING THE CONVERSATION
STARTING THE CONVERSATION ! That's exactly what we hope happens after you see this new documentary. It was co-written and co-produced by the founder of COMPASSIONATE HANDS AND HEARTS BREAST CANCER OUTREACH, Vanessa Echols.
The documentary looks at an issue on a lot of survivors' minds, but it's a topic few have been willing to discuss openly, until now: What happens to intimate relationships when some is diagnosed with breast cancer ?
This project came about because so many of our clients have experienced separation, divorce or serious marital problems while they were going through treatment.
The documentary features breast cancer survivors whose marriages collapsed during treatment, and couples who talk about how their marriages were actually strengthened after the diagnosis and treatment.
The documentary premier is Sunday, November 3, 2013 at the Werner Auditorium in the Ginsberg Tower at Florida Hospital on Rollins Street in Orlando. It is open to the public.
Here's a preview:
