Frankly Speaking to Kids about Cancer

Had a great conversation with Frank McCloy, News Director of WCHE AM. We spoke about my personal experiences with breast cancer, talking to kids about cancer and the creation of our book Butterfly Kisses and Wishes on Wings: When someone you love has cancer... a helpful, hopeful book for kids. Frank also spoke with the Medical Director of the Cancer Center at Paoli HospitalDr. Michael Dabrow in honor of October being Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

Couldn't Have Said it Better

Here we are again- Breast Cancer awareness month and with that a wonderful conversation with Richard Gaw, staff writer with Chester County publications. Richard and I sat pond side in my backyard last week and spoke about my experience with cancer, the creation of our book Butterfly Kisses and Wishes on Wings, life and my art.


The results of our brief time together is an insightful and in depth article in the October 23, 2013 issue of the Chester County Press called Small Things with Great Love.


Thanks Richard for being a butterfly for our book and helping it continue its journey to help kids understand cancer.
