[Mira · Rating 3 out of 5]

High marks for candid treatment of ostomy and frankness about her own resistance to screening and diagnosis.

[Lisa · Rating 4 out of 5]

Although I didn't have cancer and I had an ileostomy instead it was a good book to read to see how others have gone through similar experiences and dealt with them. Very good book.
