Synopsis
Help is on the way with Virginia Viola’s comforting debut, Walking Through Breast Cancer.
Warm, witty, and undeniably human, this eye-opening guide to one of the country’s most prevalent diseases is exactly the kind of book Viola wishes had been around when she was diagnosed with breast cancer.
Readers will find comfort and renewed hope as they navigate the personal side of an often impersonal journey. While the resources available for breast cancer patients usually revolve around medical textbooks and sterile explanations from doctors, Walking Through Breast Cancer chronicles the real feelings and struggles that come with losing your hair after less than three weeks of chemotherapy or dealing with rapid changes in your skin’s look and feel.
Questions both big and small are tackled with refreshing honesty and surprising candor, including “Who or what caused cancer for me?,” “Why am I going through this when others don’t have to?,” and “How do I stay honest with my feelings while not having this disease define my relationships with others?”
With one in every eight women experiencing a diagnosis of breast cancer at some point in her life, this guide is a must-read for both breast cancer patients and caregivers.
