A Site with a Cause

Almost 4 years ago, my 36-year old sister, Barbara, discovered to have ovarian cancer. Her life and the lives of those close to her changed forever. Since th

at day in July 2006, we have traveled along a route of sudden turns, real hopes, false hopes, illusions, disillusions, laughs, cries and a lot of learning. The purpose of my

new blog – or site – is the one of becoming a meeting point for people going through the same tough journey. A place where we can share information, links and stories about people like my sister and their families.

The symbol of New Life is a “stem”. Stems hold flowers together and bring nutrients and new cells to them. All the experts seem to agree that stem cell research is the future in the fight against

cancer. Hope that, one day, a “new life” will start, is what keeps warriors like Barbara fighting.
