SCAR project

This project uses photography to tell the story of breast cancer survivors. Many have gone through mastectomies and some have decided on recontruction. You can see their scars, but, of course, each are much more than that. I know 2 people who have participated, and the photos of them turned out gorgeous. You can see Steph, who also started chemo in Oct with me. http://picasaweb.google.com/bionerdsteph/SCARProject#

Overall, I think the photos look great! I would have thought about participating, but they are looking more for those under 30 since the spots over 30 were already filled. I say you get more rambuctious as you get older!! I also don't have much of a scar since I had 2 lumpectomies, and my great breast surgeon used the same incision for the second one. The scars are healing so nicely that they are already past the shiny stage, just kinda red.
