This was my favorite!  
This was my favorite book when I was diagnosed. It is down to earth advice and information. It was the book I picked up and reread when I was nervous about different treatments and medications. If I had to only purchase one book - this would be it.

Thank You  
I bought this book for a neighbor and good friend that was recently diagnosed with breast cancer. She is only 38 years young and had to go through the surgery twice because the doctors did not get all the cancer in the first surgery. She read this book, so she told me, from cover to cover and it helped her a lot in talking with her doctors. Again, thank you!

The only book you'll need  
If you are a person who has been diagnosed with early stage breast cancer or you know someone who has, this is the book to get.

It tells you all those little tidbits that no one ever mentions in the medical information they give you upon diagnosis. The goal is to help you with all the stages of your journey--not just to tell you what the side effects of your treatment are, but to give you practical advice on how to get through it with minimal discomfort. It also has a section at the end of each chapter that is aimed at helping your loved ones find their way in helping you.

I borrowed piles of books for the library when I was diagnosed, but this is the only one I bought (after 3 renewals from the library), and I am so glad I did!

Understanding Breast Cancer Treatments  
This book is wonderful in helping women who are diagnosed with breast cancer. The book gives you explanations as to what could happen with your treatment. I was diagnosed with breast cancer over a year ago and this book was given to me then. I now own a very worn, dog ear edition which I would never give up. Since my diagnoses 3 close friends have also been diagnosed and the day that they called to tell me I order this book from amazon to be sent directly to them. Everyone has told me thank you many times and said that this book really helped

Just Get Me Through This!  
The book does a great job in educating women with breast cancer how to get through tough times. From comprehending the news to informing others of the news to reacting to all of the emotion that goes with it. Great book to give to a loved one if not for yourself!
