A Husband Took These Photos Of His Wife And Captured Love And Loss Beautifully

 By: Rossalyn Warren

When I saw these incredible photos Angelo Merendino took of his wife, Jennifer, as she battled breast cancer, I felt that I shouldn't be seeing this snapshot of their intimate, private lives. The photos humanize the face of cancer and capture the difficulty, fear, and pain that they experienced during the difficult time. But as Angelo commented: "These photographs do not define us, but they are us."
