Description

This is the story of my discovery and treatment of BREAST CANCER. Only 1 percent of all breast cancers occur in men. I knew that men could get breast cancer but I personally knew of no one who had it. It is my hope that this book will make more people aware. My wife passed away in 2007 from breast cancer, which she fought for 9 years. In those 9 years, I learned much about the disease - from treatment to side effects. So when I discovered a lump in my breast, I knew exactly what I needed to do. I chronicle everything from the discovery of the lump through all of my treatments. I hold nothing back and tell exactly how I made it through the diagnosis, surgery and chemotherapy treatments. About The Author: Richard W.
