Over the years, people have shared their very personal experiences with inflammatory breast cancer to encourage and teach others. These are their stories in their own words.
IBC patients (and one family member) have shared their experiences with IBC so that others may learn or be encouraged by them. They provide hope and reflect their joy in spite of being thrown into the unknown territory of the IBC community. These are their stories in their own words.
