This informative knowledgeable book was one of the things that got me through a very dark time in my life. I loved it and felt as though I had my oncologist and surgeon with me at all times. I found the information in it very empowering and I would highly recommend it to anyone facing this enormous challenge.

Other books provide information and inspirational quotes, this book provides an education. Still glossed over the severity of surgery and side effects of treatments, but unfortunately a necessary read.
