Despite increasing pain and burns from the most recent round of radiation, Kristen manages to keep up with work and spend time with a friend at the beach. With only five days left until the end of radiation and “no evidence of disease,” surely there’s a celebration in store?
On one hand, yes, and maybe even a silly Halloween costume in the works. On the other hand, one does not just bounce back after breast cancer and Kristen is surprised to find that she’s never going back to who she was before.
We confront the hardest question yet… how do you know if all of this worked? Anyone with a loved one going through cancer will treasure Kristen’s answer and her advice about what to say to someone who’s reached the “end” of the cancer treatment journey.
