This is a powerful companion guide for women navigating the choice to have a mastectomy or a lumpectomy. Empower yourself with this supportive resource to build trust and resilience–from the day you are diagnosed to the moment you realize: “I got this.”

Choosing a mastectomy is more than losing your original breasts. It’s about the power of self-discovery, personal choice, and mindset. In this book, you will learn that removing fear is just as important as removing cancer. Women and caregivers will understand that a double mastectomy is an outer journey of physical change and an inner journey of mental strength.

“Are you okay with seeing my breasts?”
