Breast Cancer

About the Book

This book is broken down into sections – chapters, if you will – from the beginning of a breast cancer experience to the end, based on my own personal experience. I tried to ensure that one could easily open the index and say “What does a cancer lump feel like?” and go to that chapter, or my biggest thing was I wanted to see pictures. There is a chapter for that. I would recommend the care-giving chapter to everyone. It was important for me to include as much detail in all my work. I believe knowledge is power!

About the Author

This book started as an absolute determination. There was this voice in my head, saying, “People need to know this.” I searched for the answers to many questions and couldn’t find them. My goal is that you can find those answers to any question you have about going through breast cancer. I especially found myself in a very upsetting position when I was diagnosed. I had just separated from and was in the middle of a divorce from a twenty-two-year marriage, and after long consideration with my employer, it was mutually decided that my position of 21 years would no longer work. So, you see this voice that was telling me to write this book could have been telling me to write about plenty other stuff, but this is what needed to be told.
