About Grace + Ease


Ms. Travis Brady & Grace + Ease

On the last day of my radiation for Stage 3 breast cancer, I knew I wanted to help others like me get through treatment. I realized how.
There was no resource on the web that gave tips on how to get through surgery, chemo and radiation. I decided to share the collective wisdom of my own experience plus what other survivors passed on to me.
In October, Breast Cancer Awareness month, I posted one thing each day that helped me through each phase of treatment. I was honest, open and heartfelt cataloguing the posts making them easier to find.
Grace and Ease was something I continually asked for from friends and family in my treatment updates.
- Grace so that I wouldn’t slide into victimhood or self-pity.
- Ease so that treatment would go smoothly. My daughter was 3. Being a 42-year-old mom with a toddler was hard enough. Adding cancer treatment felt overwhelming.
Both were granted to me. I figured if I needed Grace and Ease, maybe others did too.
Now (2020), I’m over four years out from the start of my treatment surviving and thriving. If you are a survivor and want to share what helped you through treatment, please leave a comment at the end of a blog post. Or, send a message to me on the Connect page. I’d love to hear from you. Others would benefit from your story as well.
Thanks, Travis
