Description
I submitted this image for a contest at DeviantArt (my first image there), contest run by a woman in celebration of her upcoming 7th year as a breast cancer survivor. I jumped at the opportunity to make my own contribution in raising awareness to breast cancer and as my own personal celebration gesture. You see, I was diagnosed myself January this year and I didn't make it public as I didn't want anyonne to think of me as possibly dying as is often the case or used to be when we talk about cancer. I needed all positive thoughts for my first surgery :) I'm ok now. I caught it at an earlier stage, before it might spread and we could even call it cancer. At least as far as the doctors are concerned. It was another story for me lol I am lucky and very grateful and it became important to me that I would be the bearer of good news, better news, after both surgeries and treatments were behind me. Thanks to advancement in medicine and I have to say, to women who came before me, I am part of the 70% of women who now make it through and survive and in my case, intact with only two relatively small scars to show for it, now that the effects of radiotherapy have mostly faded. My new slogan now is "get a mammo" lol
Thank you for you constant support and as you can see, it did slow me down in the last 7 months and I may not have commented as much as I used to and may never again, although I make every effort to comment as much as I can. And now that my energy is getting back in the past week or so, I'm also catching up for lost time and taking care of things and going out more in real life. I'm feeling free :)

Stunning image!I love pink.Great work with the hair!I share your sentiment because my mom is a survivor so I have to be extra vigilant when it comes to my own check ups.Great composition.

Wow, that is fantastic that you've come through this trying time. I for one am very happy to hear that you're going to be okay and have survived this stain on human life. As you may know, my father passed away from Pancreatic Cancer. I wish that they could just find a cure for this now and stop all the nonsense. This is a gorgeous image and I really like the realism/illustrated approach you've taken here. Very nicely done. And please, do not worry yourself over whether you comment on images or not. Live your life and be happy. Peace.

Oh Louise what fantastic news! I am so glad that you are now okay!! Wonderful news. A magnificent image to celebrate your recovery and that of the women DA. It is a most beautiful image and her expression of shear determination and of course the colors and composition are gorgeous. I love Art Nouveau and you do it so beautifully. :o)

As great as your picture is, your comments meant more to me. I'm a man, but I am a ten year survivor of another form of cancer. I'm pleased to hear that you are doing well. It will take a bit more time to get all your strength back, I expect. (Took me almost a year.) But I assure you that it will return and you will have many happy and interesting years still to experience. I'm very happy for your and your victory.

A big smile for you and for getting your energy back! And I love these Art Noveau pieces that you are doing, though to be honest I love all your art--I have never seen a piece from you that was anything but gorgeous and inspiring. I'm very honored that you included a bit of the Future backs in there, though you made it very much your own!

Eh bien Louise, chapeau bas ! Tout d'abord pour ton histoire et ton courage exemplaire face à ta maladie. Tu as eu raison d'être optimiste et c'est ce qui t'a sauvé aussi bien que les progrès de la médecine. Ensuite pour le courage de nous dévoiler tout ceci alors que tu pouvais très bien garder cette histoire pour toi et ta famille. Tu as raison d'en parler pour faire avancer le regard des autres sur cette maladie et surtout faire changer le comportement des femmes : la prévention est capitale dnas la lutte contre cette maladie Enfin, pour ton image qui est superbe tout simplement. Félicitations Louise et je te souhaite encore beaucoup de bonheur !
