My mum died on Tuesday. And I have so much to say about it but also nothing. Dealing with the exhaustion of grief so please forgive me for late replies and general chaos.

Words of support from family and friends can be so important during cancer treatment. 'Treasured Texts' by Penny Mitchell captures it beautifully - "The messages would make me laugh, held me up, kept me going and brought a smile to my day" breastcancerartproject.wordpress.com/2024/05/06/tre…

'Selfie, 3am, Stage 2' is a painting by South African artist, Thea Darlow, based on a selfie she took in the early hours of the morning. "The darkness felt when no lights are on in the house was also a metaphor based on how I felt". #breastcancer breastcancerartproject.wordpress.com/2024/05/06/sel…

@ArtMarieCalais @patmatsueda Yes twitter is so different now. What's the best platform now in your opinion? I'm not up and with it on these things!

@ArtMarieCalais I love this! Really creative transformation of your mammogram. And yes, of course it counts. We share art in its broadest sense. Photography and digital art included. You're welcome to submit some pieces, and I'll share them 😊

@zozimus @TassiaHaines Oh no, I'm so very sorry to hear this really sad news about Tassia. Another special soul taken too soon by breast cancer.😔

The amazing and beautiful @TassiaHaines died today. I loved getting to know this amazing activist, artist and communicator. I’ll miss her. Rest in power Tassia - the fight for services for metastatic BC will continue from where you left it.
