This story speaks not only to breast cancer survivors but also to all women when facing challenge and adversity. It began as a diary of diagnosis and treatment, but evolved into a discovery of self. It is not a story of tremendous courage against extraordinary odds, or of miraculous cures. It is simply one ordinary woman's fight against this insidious disease. Learning about and using the mind-body-spirit connection, and inviting family and friends to embark on this journey with her, made the author's illness and recovery so much easier to bear. Join her in this roller coaster ride of despair, hopes, fears, friendship, love, tears and laughter, and perhaps collect a little inspiration and joy along the way.
