World Cancer Day – February 4, 2013

Today, February 4th, is World Cancer Day.

As a cancer “thriver” myself I’ve thought all day about my own cancer journey and how it affected and still affects who I am.

This led me down the road to wonder – as I approach 50 years old this year – who am I today?

I’m a writer now; I’m an activist for many causes including cancer survivors; and I am still – and always will be – a dancer. I’m currently choreographing a production of CHICAGO the Musical in San Diego.

I often forget how much I love dance. It is hard, it hurts the older I get; yet, it means even more to me “the older I get.”  Somehow, I  knew dance would be related to my thoughts on World Cancer Day.

And lo and behold, I come across this beautiful project from Visible Ink featuring my uber-talented friend Kathryn Murphy dancing to a gorgeous essay by Jessica Moser.  Kathryn’s dancing is an honest and beautiful embodiment of the early days of cancer diagnosis.  Really beautiful.
