Loose Threads

In Loose Threads: Weaving Life Back Together After Cancer, Kristi Sainchuk walks you through life before, during and after her breast cancer diagnosis and her story of dealing with each stage physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually. With courage, humor and resilience, Kristi shares her experiences of chemotherapy, a double bilateral radical mastectomy, radiation, breast reconstruction ... and beyond.

Early menopause at 36 years old and a breakdown in Costco one day lead Kristi to seek out additional support and discover SAORI weaving in an art therapy class. This changed her perception of herself and of the world, allowed her to accept her imperfections, see the gift in the cancer itself, and weave her life back together, both literally and figuratively.
