Designed to help women understand the complexities of cancer treatment, it answer questions such as: Why me? What does my diagnosis mean? Is there a secret cure? Should I change my diet? What happens next? What does a mastectomy look like? How should I feel? Evidence based, the information is accurate, thorough and positive. It contains simple, clear explanations and is arranged close to the order that events usually happen. Colour illustrations and charts help explain medical terms and procedures, extra illustrations are cheerful and humorous. Written and illustrated by a breast cancer survivor (a professional illustrator) and reviewed by experts in the medical field
