Surviving cancer
from Inside Dartmouth Medicine Hosted by Dartmouth Medicine Magazine
Surviving cancer P.J. Hamel, a senior editor at King Arthur Flour Company, headquartered in Norwich, Vt., describes herself professionally as a "baker and blogger." She writes the King Arthur catalog, creates recipes, has written cookbooks, and blogs about baking on the company's website. And personally Hamel is, among many other roles, a cancer survivor--she was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2001 and over the next nine months had surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy at Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center. She began blogging about cancer as well, shortly after her diagnosis. Writing, she says, is a thread that has run through her entire life. In a feature for the Spring 2009 issue of Dartmouth Medicine, titled "My Story," she shared the experiences and emotions of being diagnosed with and treated for cancer. This is a web extra to an article that appeared in the Spring 2009 issue of Dartmouth Medicine Magazine. To read the article, go to: http://dartmed.dartmouth.edu/spring09/html/my_story.php
