This is a great book for someone who has breast cancer and their care helper.

My favorite cancer book. It is made up of all kinds of advice from women who have been there. I found it so helpful on my own journey with breast cancer. It has some great tips and it full of hope and encouragement. I gave it to my dear friend when she found out she had breast cancer.
Collection of anecdotes and advice told by women and men who have gone through breast cancer treatment.
Very positive, life-affirming read for someone going through breast cancer treatment.
Helpful. Good usable advice for dealing with breast cancer treatment.
the only breast cancer book that didn't totally depress me or overwhelm me. in the midst of my bad days i could pick this up and smile. when my chemo brain is foggy, this is still and easy read.

I took ballroom dancing lessons. I went to summer camp through my fifteenth year (in Maine, which explains the setting of so many of my stories), then spent my sixteenth summer learning to type and to drive (two sk...more
