Between the pandemic and treatments I've gotten into podcasts, not just for the boredom and sitting around during sessions, but also because sometimes it's all I have the energy to do. Sometimes even keeping my eyes open takes effort, so TV is out.

Hi everyone,
I think this is an interesting topic that hasn't gotten much visibility. I will tag a few others and hope they can share:

While in treatment for breast cancer, do you have a ritual, or habit? Do you watch something, read, write, play games, or knit? Is this something you did before, or is it a new activity?
Take care,
Lizzi

Hello everyone,
How are you today?![emoticon cute](https://member.carenity.us/static/themes-v3/default/javascripts/vendor/tinymce/plugins/emoticons/img/cute.png)
When going through treatment, patients may often turn to certain sources of comfort to take their minds off their cancer or what they're going through. It may be a TV show or book, a particular activity or ritual, or even a piece of clothing or blanket.
A member living with breast cancer on Carenity France just shared a testimonial with us where she explains how she turned to writing for comfort and to express herself while in treatment for cancer: Breast cancer: "Writing has become indispensable for me!”
What or whom did you turn to for comfort while in treatment for breast cancer? Was there a ritual or habit that helped you? A particular person or activity? Can you share any tips with other members who may currently be in treatment?

Feel free to share with us here!
Take care,
Courtney
