New Orleans Native Publishes Powerful Collection of Poetry May 07, 2021 (PRLEAP.COM) Entertainment News The Pretty Pink Ribbon: A Breast Cancer Survivor s Hurricane Katrina Experience, a new book by Joyce Washington Ivery, has been released by RoseDog Books.
The author was inspired to write this book as a result of her horrific experiences during hurricane Katrina. In March, 1989, Joyce Washington Ivery was diagnosed with breast cancer. One year later she had a saline implant placed in her chest cavity. The implant was removed in August, 2005, fifteen years later, and replaced with a tummy flap. While in the hospital, hurricane Katrina came along with its forceful winds and flooding waters.
