a gift

I got this book as a gift for my mother when she was diagnosed with it, and she loves it! We don't have anyone else in our family who's had breast cancer so it was pretty scary when she was diagnosed because we have hardly any knowledge of the facts of the disease. She loves it though because as she said, the internet is a great source of information but it is too broad. This book is very specific and is written in plain english which is why I like it for her. She likes it because of the practical advice such as wearing a sports bra after surgery for better support. She also found the Dr. Susan Love's Breast book very helpful with the technical information.

Factual and funny on such a serious subject!

This book focuses on the seriousness of breast cancer but does add some humor to help decrease anxiety in women facing this horrible disease. The book also offers search and find puzzles, jokes, and words to some of Rosie's songs you may have heard on her show. Numerous questions are answered in easy to understand format. There are a couple of illustrations scetched in black and white. I recommend this book to anyone interested in learning more about breast cancer, prevention, and treatment. There are breast cancer organizations, along with other helpful resource information, found in the back of the book, many with telephone numbers and email addresses. I find this book to be a very good resource for anyone wanting to learn more.

Rosie's Right On!

If you only buy one book about breast cancer, make it this one. When I was diagnosed with Breast Cancer I bought many books. That is my way of dealing...get all of the information that you can and then make decisions. I almost did not buy this book, because I did not find anything amusing about breast cancer and I thought that the book was irreverant. Boy was I wrong! Dr. Axelrod provides a great deal of valuable information. Rosie's comments are touching and funny and remind you that it is ok to laugh. It is more than ok, it it about the best thing that you can do for yourself and those you love. Thanks Dr. Axelrod and Rosie!

Such an easy read (25 year old female)

I recieved this book as a promotional gift and decided to read it while commuting on the train-and I'm so glad I did. Having never read a word about breast cancer before, i found this book to be an excellent book for those who need an introduction or even in depth knowledge on this subject-and its a VERY EASY READ. I plan on passing my copy onto a few friends my age to help spread the word about taking care of yourself-the sooner women learn about breast care hopefully the sooner these scary statistics will go down. Please send this book to a friend!

Breast Cancer 101 with some time out for laughter

This is an easy-to-digest book of general facts about breast cancer. It is easily understood by the lay person with no prior knowledge of this disease and is made palpable by Rosie's outrageous sense of humor. I would recommend this book for anyone who wants to get a beginner's education on the subject of breast cancer.
