When the going gets tough some people want to gather their thoughts and find out what tests are needed for a correct diagnosis after the troubling signs occurred. The others are looking for
information and reviews about charitable foundations that provide financial support. And
someone will find strength to fight the disease inspired by the stories of former cancer patients.

Our project unites doctors, patients and their relatives who want to help and support each other.

At the age of 27 Yulia was diagnosed with breast cancer. The idea of the «Oncomoms» blog was
born in the chemotherapy room, where Yulia had been told about the book of a cured
oncopatient. Yulia was also cured and wanted to be useful to others, so she created a blog where
she first published her story, and then began looking for stories of other women around the world who became mothers after oncology.

In the interview Yulia told us about how important it is to find a competent doctor, how the
recovery after the disease was going, how difficult it was to build relationships with men (after
her oncology), what remedy she found instead of visiting a psychologist.
