Some of you may remember this blog that I wrote last May. The online version of the New York Times had asked cancer survivors to upload their photos and insights about life after cancer on their "Picture Your Life After Cancer" photo gallery. I uploaded a couple of pictures and wrote out some thoughts about life after cancer along with close to 900 other cancer survivors. Click here to see the virtual wall of survivors and read their thoughts.
Yesterday I received this email -
Dear Linda:
Thank you again so much for your submission to our “Picture Your Life After Cancer” photo gallery. The response has been tremendous, with over 800 photos already collected. Now we want to share with you the exciting news that your submission to the feature has been selected for publication in a book to be published next year by the American Cancer Society. The book will comprise 200 -250 “Picture Your Life After Cancer” submissions that have appeared on The Times website.
Congratulations, and our sincere thanks for contributing.
