In 1992, at age 38, author Lillie Shockney was diagnosed with breast cancer. As a nurse, as an administrator at Johns Hopkins Hospital, and as a child growing up on a farm in Maryland, she has seen such cancer before. Her journey to becoming a member of the Breast Cancer Survivors' Club and a tireless crusader for women's health and well-being will inspire and challenge readers, whether they are newly diagnosed, are the caregiver or loved one of a breast cancer patient, or just want to know more about a disease that affects one in eight women.

Praise:
