“Just Get Me Through This! will help all women facing breast cancer to muster the strength and summon the courage needed to put one foot in front of the other and walk step-by-step through breast cancer, one day and one decision at a time—all with a bit of humor and perspective from someone who’s been there.”

“It is not often that I find myself praising a ‘self-help’ book for patients with breast cancer, since so many of them, frankly, are repetitive and condescending to the reader. Just Get Me Through This! is certainly the exception. The authors—a woman who’s been there and an oncologist with extensive experience—take you by the hand and expertly guide you through the day-ins and day-outs of managing everything about your breast cancer. This is not only a practical coping guide, but also offers a unique perspective on each decision associated with surgery and treatment.”
