When nine year old Cade's mother was diagnosed with breast cancer, he had a ton of questions. In his own words, " I just found out that my Mom (CA) has breast cancer. My sister started crying when she heard the news. I did not, but I felt sad inside. My mom and I wrote this book to give other kids answers to questions they might have."
Triple negative is a deadly form of breast cancer. Because these tumors are aggressive and there are fewer treatment options, the woman with a triple negative diagnosis often receives the maximum chemotherapy and the most radiation. What she doesn't get is a lot of hope. The facts of triple negative are so frightening that she will wish she had regular every-day cancer. Ann Tracy Marr knows the feeling; she survived triple negative breast cancer. To keep track of what was going on and to hang on to her sanity, Marr wrote a diary through diagnosis, surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation treatment. Dear Cancer is a mix of personal experience and medical fact translated into plain English. The reader walks in Marr's shoes through surgery, chemo rooms, and radiation labs. The reader will have an accurate description of a biopsy. A port will cease to be a mystery. She will be acquainted with the symptoms of side effects and have tips for dealing with them. Recognition of a developing radiation burn allows early implementation of the steps to heal it. Details of promising research will encourage her. Buried in the wealth of information are hints of the emotions she may have to contend with. Research proves that optimism counts when fighting cancer and knowledge is empowering. The reader won't be taken off-guard at what the doctor orders. She won't be bewildered by her body's response to treatment. She won't feel alone; she will be aware that someone else has gone through this prolonged ordeal and survived. She can retain control. Dear Cancer gives the person diagnosed with triple negative breast cancer hope and tools to fight a killer. Not to ignore the person with a simpler diagnosis: the book is equally valuable to the person with other forms of breast cancer. The reader can skip over the information that pertains to triple negative tumors secure in the knowledge that the medical treatment applies to those with plain old invasive breast cancer or DCIS.

Renowned as a much-loved and highly respected BBC journalist, Victoria Derbyshire has spent 20 years finding the human story behind the headlines. In 2015 she found herself at the heart of the news, with a devastating breast cancer diagnosis. With honesty and openness, she decided to live out her treatment and recovery in the spotlight in a series of video diaries that encouraged thousands to seek diagnosis and help. Victoria has kept a diary since she was nine years old and in DEAR CANCER, LOVE VICTORIA she shares her day to day experiences of life following her diagnosis and coming to terms with a future that wasn't planned. From the moment she woke up to find her right breast had collapsed, to telling her partner and children, through to mastectomy and chemotherapy. From wearing a wig to work and hiding it from her colleagues, to the relief and joy of finishing treatment before immediately flying to Glasgow to present a debate on the European Referendum. By sharing her story, she became the person that mums, daughters, sisters, husbands, boyfriends and family members contacted to thank as they tried to find ways to cope with their own and their loved ones' prognosis, and needed to know that they were not alone. Victoria's story is an affecting and at times heart-breaking one but it is so often laugh-out-loud too. Moving, wonderfully heartwarming and ultimately uplifting, this is a powerful account of a brave struggle told with honesty, courage and emotion that gives strength to anyone touched by cancer.

The self-published sensation and UK bestseller that has helped thousands touched by cancer. “I have cancer. Cancer does not have me.” Sophie Sabbage was forty-eight years old, happily married, and mother to a four-year-old daughter when she was diagnosed with late-stage lung cancer. Since that shocking diagnosis, she has been on a remarkable journey of healing and renewal that has reshaped her life—for the better. The Cancer Whisperer chronicles Sophie’s extraordinary relationship with cancer and the very effective methods she has used for dealing with her fear, anger, denial, and grief. The Brené Brown of cancer, Sophie empowers readers to reject the traditional adversarial relationship with cancer by teaching us how to listen to it; how to be healed by it as well as how to seek to cure it; and how to be emotionally free even when we are physically curtailed. Beautifully and poignantly written, The Cancer Whisperer encourages cancer patients to: • Direct their own treatment while preserving their personhood in a system that tends to see them as patients more than people. • Engage with fear, anger, and grief in healthy and healing ways instead of toughing it out, trying to be falsely positive, or collapsing into despair. • Radically shift from being a cancer victim to a cancer listener—fostering an understanding of cancer as a symptom of other underlying causes and engaging with whatever changes it calls on them to make. As authentic as it is revolutionary, The Cancer Whisperer calls for an end to “the war on cancer” and the start of a more transformative dialogue with the disease.
