Description

As women quickly discover, their life when remedy ends is very different from what it was once before their diagnosis. Frequently exhausted, anxious, and emotionally volatile, they’re beset by physical discomforts, fearful of intimacy, afraid for their children, worried about recurrence. Anticipating a return to “normalcy,” they discover that the old version of normal no longer applies.

There might be no more knowledgeable guide for women embarking in this complicated journey than Hester Hill Schnipper, who is herself both an experienced oncology social worker and a breast cancer survivor. This comprehensive handbook provides jargon-free information on the wide variety of practical issues women face as they navigate the journey back to health, including:

•Managing physical problems such as fatigue, hot flashes, and aches and pains

•Handling relationships: your children, your partner, your parents, your friends.

•The best way to regain emotional and sexual intimacy

•Coping with financial and place of job issues

•Genetic testing: why, whether, when

•The best way to move beyond the fear of recurrence

•And much more

This indispensable book will assist you to rediscover your capacity for joy as you move forward into the future—as a survivor.
