Hi there!
​
My name is Simone Coleman and I am the creator of Beyond Brain Cancer!
​
I am a brain cancer survivor, daughter of a cancer survivor, and a woman of strong faith. Since my battle, I have become even more passionate about helping people! Beyond Brain Cancer was created in response to my personal battle and to provide insight from the perspective of a survivor. My vision for Beyond Brain Cancer is to spread awareness about the disease and give pertinent information surrounding healing, recovery, and general encouragement. When I was going through my diagnosis, I wasn’t able to find many blogs or articles for my specific type of brain cancer, which was a little discouraging. I am hoping that my blog will give you exactly what you are searching for!
​
With that in mind, I want to build a community of survivors, so that we can draw from each other’s experiences. I turned my challenges after cancer into positivity, so that I can provide comfort and convenience to those who need it. I lost my hair during my battle (and I know that’s something many people worry about after initial diagnosis) and a lot of my confidence, but I found a way to bring joy back into my life by doing what makes me happy, and that’s helping others.
​
“I wasn’t made to fit in; I was created to stand out,” has become my life’s motto. I pressed on and strived to be great despite the health challenges that came my way.
​
If you or someone you know is navigating through this journey, they too should know they’re not in it alone. I have embraced my new normal and I love exactly who I am becoming, despite the impact cancer had and may still have on me. My goal is to share my insight and the helpful information I have learned from others on this same journey, and hope that others find this information helpful, as they navigate their own journey.
​
I believe everyone has a story, and my hope is that my story will promote better health for you or someone else you may know, as well as raise awareness for all cancers. If I can touch one life with my story, I am fulfilled.
