This book has been very helpful in the information and experiences other women have gone through in their breast cancer journey. One must remember that every woman is different and reacts to these experiences differently, but overall, it has been very helpful in knowing what to expect in the future, while connecting with what has already been experienced and knowing someone understands.

I came across this book about midway through my radiation treatment. With other people thinking, “Well, she got through surgeries and chemotherapy; this radiation treatment doesn’t seem to be all that difficult for her”, the spiritual support was just what I needed.
This book is one I have purchased and sent to a friend between her diagnosis and treatment; she says it has been very helpful, especially the page format of wide margins for your own notes and list and appointment pages.
I recommend this book as a basic breast cancer reference book.

This book is a terrific resource for our church’s Caring Hearts ministry to hand out to newly diagnosed cancer patients. Our mission is to offer Christ-centered personal and confidential comfort and support to caregivers, cancer patients, and the bereaved in our congregation. This book is a comprehensive, practical guide that is easy-to-read; yet more importantly, it offers such wonderful spiritual encouragement to those faced with cancer. Our true hope and strength is found in Jesus, our Lord, and each chapter leads you directly there.

Thank you, Mrs. Thompson, for this book. It is exactly the tool a woman needs when facing breast cancer. I am a 35 year old mother of three, with a wonderful husband and family. I wasn’t supposed to have breast cancer. But I do. This book has been such a comfort and a source of information to me. I shared it with my mother, who read it during my first surgery, and it brought a sense of peace to her as well. I now own multiple copies, and offer them as gifts to other women I encounter on this same journey. I wish they gave you this book in the doctor’s office when they gave you the diagnosis. It has been the most valuable source of information and comfort after my Bible.

As a Nurse Practitioner/Certified Nurse-Midwife, I see many women who are on the breast cancer journey without answers to questions they don’t even know. Having been there herself, Janet walks this journey with you – whether you are the patient, Mom, sister, husband or friend. Not only does she offer practical guidelines, but the reader becomes acutely aware of God’s presence which lends to the peace that only He can give. This is a must read for every person, male or female who either has breast cancer or knows someone who does. I recommend it to all my patients.
