This book portrays the journey of breast cancer, narrated in the first person.
Beyond describing the various moments that occurred during the illness – from its discovery to the associated feelings and treatments, including the description of the spirituality involved in the healing process and the patient’s interaction with her most significant people – this book also details various strategies, content, and support that were essential during this journey (both theoretical and those related to institutions that assist patients), which may serve as a reference for its many readers.
More than a scientific or theoretical support, this work aims to be a personal, spiritual, and profound account of what it was like to go through cancer, learning to live with the disease and with a new way of facing life.
