just wanted to say I thought the interviews in the film on secondary breast cancer were very interesting but there were far too many pictures of falling leaves, these took up too much time and were too symbolic of pending death for my liking. Also the back of the film case talks about men being diagnosed with breast cancer, some of them must get secondary breast cancer so instead of the leaves why not an interview with a man?
ta very much for letting me give some feedback. Good to see women talking about their experiences and getting on with life but let's see at least one man too
Hi Mole and others viewing, there's a thread on the BCC Secondary forum, about the DVD - search for "DVD" in Topic after having made sure the Secondary forum is (temporarily?) unblocked. I don't mind autumn leaves. They are so beautiful - every one is different, tho has sad associations too, which I guess is why they were chosen. Myself I think it is appropriate.
In answer to a question I asked by email, about how to give feedback on the DVD, I had a reply from Mags Allison, Head of Publishing & Libraries, Breast Cancer Care. She wrote me "We use feedback to help us improve our resources in the future so if you'd like to email me the points you want to raise that would be great." I won't give her email address here - Moderator/Facilitator please comment! :-)
