There’s a cancer support group in Bohol

A few days after I got back from Chairman Mao’s territory. My editor calls me for a LifestyleBohol shoot/interview. There, at the K of C church formation center, we met them. They’re women cancer (mostly breast cancer) survivors. Amazing. I know there’s quite a number cancer victims in Bohol, some fortunate enough to survive, some not but I never thought their number would amount to something that would entail a support group. Sitting down with the Bohol Cares, a cancer support group, hearing their stories of struggling (and surpassing) the fight against cancer and chemotherapy was revealing, inspiring.
