From There to Here: A Breast Cancer Journey
Description:
From There to Here: A Breast Cancer Journey deals head-on with life’s messy issues when you or a person you love is diagnosed with cancer. Diane Davies, trying to deal with her own diagnosis of breast cancer, kept a 302-day journal to record her thoughts, feelings, and interactions with her husband, family, friends, doctors and other medical staff. With honesty and wit, Diane discusses many of the issues people are most scared to talk about—anger, denial, fear, the loss of a breast, rejection, pain, advocacy, treatment and reconstruction options. This reassuring, intimate journey shows that cancer need not be the end, but the beginning of meaningful, loving relationships, both with ourself and those closest to us. A gift of love for anyone facing the threat of breast cancer or for anyone who knows someone dealing with breast cancer.
