Got Breast Cancer?: A journey through Breast Cancer and beyond

By Susan Tschepik

In May 2004, registered nurse Susan Tschepik was diagnosed with breast cancer. The diagnosis took Susan, who had no significant risk factors for the disease, completely by surprise. Almost immediately, Susan found herself making decisions critical to her treatment plan-decisions that could well affect the rest of her life. But Susan had an advantage over many other women. As a nurse she had some idea of her treatment options. Got Breast Cancer? documents Susan's experiences, from the panicked first days of diagnosis through her treatment and recovery. She can help you identify and understand your risk factors for breast cancer and the lifesaving importance of early detection. Different treatments are outlined, reflecting Susan's firm belief that patients who understand their options have a better chance for a full recovery. One in eight women is diagnosed with breast cancer, but the disease does not have to be a death sentence. Got Breast Cancer? reveals one such woman's inspiring journey.
