Be a Survivor was inspired by their desire to make the journey easier for others. Be a Survivor is the "must read" book for every woman diagnosed with breast cancer, and for those who care for her. The book is: COMPLETE - it covers all aspects of the disease - from diagnosis, to breast reconstruction, conventional and complementary therapies, and life after cancer. It also includes a chapter for the woman's husband or partner. ACCURATE - rather than reflecting a single specialist's point of view, the book is based on the combined experience and wisdom of 28 experts in various fields. REASSURING - written with compassion and understanding, the book also includes candid stories by survivors and their partners. USER-FRIENDLY - hundreds of color photos, graphics and diagrams help clarify important concepts. UP-TO-DATE - the book covers the very latest developments, including brachytherapy, perforator flaps, skin sparing mastectomy and much more. UNIQUE - Be a Survivor is the ONLY book on breast cancer that comes with a DVD, so the reader can see videos of procedures, hear survivors' stories, and enjoy the animated 3-D graphics. See the DVD for a clear overview. Read the book for additional details.
