"Excellent . . . Highly recommended for anyone involved in the fight against breast cancer—patients, doctors, family members, and researchers included.” —Publishers Weekly (starred review) Whether you are facing a cancer diagnosis and the challenges of treatment; wish to prevent the disease if you’re at high risk; or are caring for someone going through the experience, this book brings you the most accurate, reliable and up-to-date information available. You’ll discover a story rich in hope, with accounts of women who’ve successfully confronted this difficult disease. The knowledge you’ll gain will help you be a more informed patient or caregiver—in communicating with doctors and selecting among treatment options. In this thorough book, the Mayo Clinic brings you critical knowledge in many key facets of breast cancer. Prevention: What can you do to decrease your risk? While there’s still no guaranteed way to prevent breast cancer, several lifestyle factors can be modified to reduce your risk, especially if you are in a high-risk category. Treatment: After diagnosis comes a flurry of questions: Now what? How do I deal with this? Do I have options? What’s my prognosis? The good news is that breast cancer is now considered a highly treatable disease with good results and increasing survival rates. The book reviews the full range of treatment options, and the pros and cons of each. Care and Coping: Life goes on after diagnosis. Doctors share their best options for dealing with emotions, coping with treatment side effects, and considering complementary therapies. A separate chapter offers helpful guidance to the patient’s partner. Living With Hope: It bears repeating: Breast cancer is highly treatable. You have every reason to live with hope. This book offers key support for every woman. “Medically sound . . . An empowering tool that soothes the sting and shock of a cancer diagnosis with up-to-date information and physician-supported advice.” —Kirkus Reviews
