Breast Cancer Awareness Month 2025

Truth Be Told

The visible and invisible sides to living with secondary (metastatic) breast cancer.

At the heart of Truth Be Told is a striking collection of photographic portraits by renowned Irish photographer Jennifer Willis, which give a candid look at the lived experience of those with secondary (metastatic) breast cancer and capture the strength, vulnerability, and authenticity of those individuals living with the disease in an unfiltered way.

These images show two sides of the same story: what we see on the outside and the not-so-visible experiences of people living with secondary breast cancer.

Truth Be Told seeks to shine a light on both sides of daily life with secondary breast cancer – the physical tolls, impact of treatment, vulnerability…as well as the resilience, strength and hope.
