What's a Cancerversary and Who Is Ned?

Cancer terminology isn't always easy to understand but in this post, hopefully you'll understand two of them much better.


PUBLISHED June 19, 2018

Bonnie Annis is a breast cancer survivor, diagnosed in 2014 with stage 2b invasive ductal carcinoma with metastasis to the lymph nodes. She is an avid photographer, freelance writer/blogger, wife, mother and grandmother.
Most cancer survivors are familiar with the term “cancerversary,” but those outside the realm of the world of cancer may not be. A cancerversary is a way to mark time and to remember significant dates.

Cancerversaries are decided by each individual person. There are no right or wrong ways to choose the date of the event. Some people choose to remember the date they received their cancer diagnosis, while others choose to mark the date they had cancer surgically removed from their bodies.
