11 Why Develop a Model?

12 One year ago I completed treatment for breast cancer. When I left the hospital the day of my last dose of radiation, my sister rang to congratulate me on having gotten through what was an horrific nine months She asked if I was going to celebrate and I burst into tears. Just when I expected to feel ecstatic, I felt lost and confused. Did I have cancer that morning when they strapped me into the radiation machine, and that afternoon I didn t? I d been a cancer patient for a year, who was I now?

13 I was more afraid at that moment than any other moment since my diagnosis During treatment I was so focused on fighting the disease. Surrounded by those whose job it was to help take on the cancer. I was too busy being sick to think about dying. Having leaned heavily on my family and friends throughout the previous year, I was also self conscious about sharing this new crisis with them how could I tell them the mental anguish had only just begun.
