Life reconstructed : navigating the world of mastectomies and breast reconstruction

Harms, Kim (author.).

Summary: A raw, heavily-researched guide for women facing breast cancer, mastectomy, and reconstruction written by a survivor. One in eight women will develop invasive breast cancer over the course of her lifetime, but this is not just another cancer book. Breast cancer survivor Kim Harms combines her own experience with extensive research and walks readers through the process of mastectomy and breast reconstruction, weighing the pros and cons, detailing the physical and emotional costs, and laying out the questions cancer fighters need to ask to be their own best advocate. With a foreword by the medical director of Katzmann Breast Center and chapters on everything from the vulnerable feeling of exposing your breasts to "everyone" to the distinctions between reconstruction and augmentation, Life Reconstructed is the compassionate, honest roadmap every breast cancer fighter needs on her journey to recovery.
