Do you know someone with breast cancer?

Do you want to understand what they are going through and how to help?

Or maybe that someone is you?

Surviving the Pink Ribbon is that experienced friend with straightforward and pragmatic answers for the "what can I do?" and "why don't they tell you that?" moments you will experience.

Each chapter of Surviving the Pink Ribbon walks you along during a part of a breast cancer experience.  While the medical team focuses on the pathology, medical treatments, and options, the "walk along" in each chapter deals with the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual impacts of this complex journey.

"Helpful Strands" of specific advice at the end of the chapters are practical aids focused on comfort for body and soul.  Diagnosis, treatment planning, chemotherapy, targeted therapy, surgery, and radiation are covered.

Breast cancer can be confusing and overwhelming.  This book focuses on ways to keep the body as comfortable as possible and the soul nourished to join in the fight.
