for my topic proposal I will be choosing Breast Cancer in women, whether the story is fiction or non fiction, breast cancer is a real thing that many women experience. Many women may find breast cancer when they go in for a mammogram, which is a fear for a lot of women. I want my paper to be a place to write of women’s stories and how they felt when they were diagnosed, how the people around them felt, how it changed everyone’s lives. mainly focusing what it does to a woman’s body, their mental health, etc.
for my class reading the one I really want to focus on is the story cancervixen, while many people may think it is odd to read a graphic novel at a college level this story is so important to read because it shows a woman’s story of her having breast cancer and the affects it had on her and her family. i have always heard of stories of women with breast cancer and know many women that have it so it is important to inform other women of different side effects when having it and the hardships of breast cancer. I want to research more so I can put information in here that is helpful for women, although my paper won’t be a guide, it will have helpful information and thought out research, while also sharing the stories of strong women going through something very hard.
