Words from the heart…

To be diagnosed with breast cancer is to face a frightening, life-changing experience, and many women who undergo this experience demonstrate extraordinary courage, strength, humour, generosity and compassion on their breast cancer journey.

The National Breast Cancer Centre (NBCC), the National Breast Cancer Foundation (NBCF) and the Breast Cancer Network Australia (BCNA) came together to work with publisher Moonstone and author and breast cancer survivor Margaret Wright on the development of a book of quotations that would convey those remarkable qualities in an inspiring and moving collection of their quotations.

Women with breast cancer, their partners, families and friends contributed quotations, poems and musings. Illustrated by artist Julianne Lord, A Pocketful of Sequins is moving, powerful, humorous and ultimately very human.

Inspirational reading for yourself or as a gift, or encouragement when someone clsoe is facing difficult times, this is a book that gives to the reader and to breast cancer research.
