Publisher's Note
Breast cancer made Jennie Nash a wise old woman at the age of thirty-six. She learned, among other things, that her instincts are good, her kids are really resilient, and that, in the fight against breast cancer, the journey for patients, family, and friends can be a surprisingly positive, life-changing experience.
Some five years younger than the AMA-recommended age for mammograms, Jennie Nash insisted she be tested, not because of a lump but because of a hunch brought on by a friend's battle with lung cancer. Jennie was as shocked to discover as her friend had been that cancer knows no age limits.
From detection and surgery to reconstruction and recovery, Jennie gives readers a road map for a journey no one chooses to take. She details both the large and small lessons learned along the way: the importance of a child's birthday cake; the pleasure of wearing a beautiful, provocative red dress; how to be grateful rather than guilty when someone brings lasagne to the door; and that sometimes the only difference between getting to live and having to die is luck.
A celebration of survival, Jennie Nash's account transforms one of life's most harrowing experiences into a story of reassurance and enlightenment.

The Victoria's Secret Catalog Never Stops Coming
) I bought this book for a close friend of mine who is battling breast cancer in both breasts. When she first discovered her cancer, she chose to tell everyone. Many of my co-workers were amazed at her courage and secretly whispered they would have "kept it to themselves". This book gives meaning as to why getting your message out there can help others.
Funny at times, very sad at others but more importantly, she gives us a informative and personal glimpse into the procedures she experienced. She was 36 when she was diagnosed. After her masectomy, she found a doctor who specialized in TRAM flap breast reconstruction. Google it. I was amazed at the scientific advancements in reconstruction and she describes her personal story in depth. She also expands her story to include other cancer patients she met along her journey.
I loved this book. At 153 pages, it was a fast, easy read. I highly recommend it.
