There are lots of books offering medical advice on cancer, but this book is different. It chronicles the cancer experience through a lay person's eyes and through the immediacy of personal experience. This book demystifies the world of cancer and offers a sense of companionship and camaraderie. It empowers the reader to take ownership of her situation and encourages her not to define herself by the cancer. Practical tips are suggested and advice on other resources and support is given. It is an all too common story of an ordinary woman (and her family) floundering around in the foreign land of cancer. It is also a story of possibilities, of joy in meeting the challenge head on, of new friendships and of a deepened awareness of the beauty of life and the preciousness of the moment.

5.0 out of 5 stars
A heart-filled journey of living,
This review is from: I've Got Cancer, But It Hasn't Got Me: Rising to the Challenge of Breast Cancer (Paperback)
This book helped me to understand that being diagnosed with breast cancer is not the end, it is the beginning - the beginning of a battle. The author tells the story of her survival and the obstacles she overcame. Her story offers a new and inspiring perspective dealing with the day-to-day experience of cancer. To read this book is to feel the pain, anger, frustration, love, and determination of a woman with many things to live for. I highly recommend this book to anyone who has been diagnosed with breast cancer or loves someone who is battling breast cancer.
