If this 66-year-old woman's will is any indication, there just might be a way. DeCoursey, a grandmother and Edinburgh real estate broker, took on the greatest challenge of her life 15 years ago and apparently has won. Yearly checkups show no trace of the cancer that might have taken over had she not discovered the lump in her breast, gotten quick medical attention and refused to be beaten. "I just felt I had well, that's all," DeCoursey says simply of her attitude throughout recovery. She credits her doctor, one special nurse, friends and family with giving her the chance and courage to go on.

Within a week of discovering a lump in one of. her breasts, Barbara Jo Objects Of Our Affections OPINION Open heart policy kept by Seward On my desk, in my address file, a note from Evelyn Seward waits to be answered. It was her last one to me and I regret that I put off the intended answer until it was too late to reply. I have 1 treasured her notes of encouragement and congratulations, and now they have become keepsakes. Evelyn Seward liked to communicate by letter writing rather than telephoning.

And for one, am glad she did. I could not have kept a telephone call as I have her hand-written letters. I'm reminded of a comment from Evelyn's good friend, Suzanne Jones, concerning the lost art of letter writing since the telephone has replaced the pen as a tool of communication. Some persons pass on without any significant example of their penmanship or treasured opinions. We could all learn a lesson from one of our city's best-known natives.

Evelyn Seward took the time to write about and work for the causes, she believed were important. Her home town was not just a place to live. It was a place to improve and preserve. Nor did her efforts at improvement and preservation stop with her community. Her chosen causes ranged from one suffering soul to include an abused planet.

No effort to improve was too small to consider or too large to tackle. She believed one person could make a difference. And she worked diligently to convince others that they too can cause changes in their corner of the world. Too many of us wait for a support group before we take a step toward improving our world. We so easily forget that most of the important changes this world has experiened were championed by one daring, determined, undaunted person.

You may not have the time to address the multiple maladies that Evelyn Seward was free to give herself to. But you can choose to touch the lives around you -in important ways. You can make yourself available for someone who may need you. Develop an open heart policy. You'll be surprised at difference make and the sense of accomplishment you'll enjoy.

DeCoursey knew she had cancer. In the process of removing the affected breast, her doctor discovered the cancer had spread to the adjoining lymph nodes and blood vessels surrounding the tumor. This necessitated a series of chemotherapy treatments in Indianapolis, the closest place at that time for follow-up cancer care. A year or two later, DeCoursey agreed to a second mastectomy as a prevention measure. She had fibrocystic a condition marked by development of cysts in the breasts.

She was fitted in both cases with breast prostheses matching the look of her own. Talking openly with coworkers, neighbors and family about her condition has helped DeCoursey beat the disease. She is grateful to others for giving her the chance. "I lived during the time when, people whispered about she says. "I couldn't have stood that." A former co-worker who was very open about his experience helped DeCoursey acknowledge and cope with her illness by sometimes reaching out.

And others reached out to her. David Bremer, minister of the Presbyterian Church in Edinburgh, was one. Bremer told DeCoursey there were three things she needed to realize and accept the seriousness of- the disease, doctor's orders and the necessity to avoid negative people. "If I were to turn that around, I'd give that one (the last) first' DeCoursey says. She, like many others who successfully fight cancer, cite a positive attitude as key to success.

"I don't believe there are nearly as many down moments as we're led to believe," DeCoursey says. Parting with her breasts was not the end of the world. "If it's diseased, you don't want it anymore," she says.
