You've just heard the words no one ever wants to hear: "You have breast cancer."
Now what?
This isn't a medical textbook or a cold list of facts. It's a warm, unfiltered conversation with someone who's been exactly where you are. In It's Not You, It's Cancer: The Inappropriate Guide to Breast Cancer, author and seventeen-year survivor Brenda M. Lee walks beside you through the chaos, fear, and unexpected moments of grace that follow a diagnosis.
With humor, honesty, and a healthy dose of compassion, Brenda shares the parts no one prepares you for — the emotions that hit hardest, the relationships that shift, and the quiet strength that grows when you think you've run out.
Whether you're newly diagnosed, supporting a loved one, or rebuilding life after treatment, this 250-page guide offers comfort, laughter, and hope that healing isn't just physical — it's deeply human.
Because cancer changes everything… but it doesn't get to take everything.
