Can You Come Here Where I Am?: The Poetry and Prose of Seven Breast Cancer Survivors

In poetry and prose, seven members of a Virginia-based breast cancer support group express their feelings as they face diagnosis, treatment and recovery. Their voices are unusually powerful and reflect their backgrounds in education, the arts and journalism. The book demonstrates the healing power of words and is being praised by survivors, their families and friends as the first source for expression and confirmation of their own experiences.
