A Pictoral Story Of Love And Loss

The old saying 'a picture is worth a thousand words' could not be more fitting when looking at these incredible photos taken by Angelo Merendino of his wife, Jennifer during her battle with breast cancer. The pictures will take you on a journey of two lives together; an emotional rollercoaster that will open up the intimate, private lives of total strangers who had a story to tell.
 
These pictures and this story had such a profound impact on me that I wanted/needed to share them and the story of love they tell with anybody who might happen upon this little blog. 
 
Original pictures by Angelo Merendino.  Please visit his website, The Battle We Didn't Choose where you can learn more about the legacy of Jennifer and her story and learn about the non-profit organization, The Love You Share that Angelo has started to help women in treatment for breast cancer.
