Going Flat

Going Flat

Irene Brady
0/5 ( ratings)
If a book about cancer could ever be said to be enjoyable, Going Flat is the one – a candid, engrossing, and sometimes even humorous account of a single woman’s journey through the confusing maze of breast cancer discovery and treatment.

Speaking in the first person through journal entries and e-mail exchanges, Renie offers a lively narrative with a keen eye for details. From the jarring discovery of the lump in her breast to the removal of both breasts only weeks later, her story, and her determination to view it as an adventure instead of a tragedy, is an uplifting and absorbing tale from start to finish.

With help from supportive family and friends, including Diana , and her support group which raises money to help her cover expenses, she explores the alternatives, finds solutions to psychological, physical and financial problems, and emerges as a positive example for anyone facing life's challenges.

Throughout Going Flat, Renie involves the reader in resolving the issues she encounters, such as including whether or not to remove both breasts; the pros and cons of wearing prosthetics or having reconstructive surgery; how to talk to friends and relatives about her situation; and whether to have chemotherapy and radiation treatments. She faces the odds of her survival with courage, exploring how to live the rest of her life with quality no matter what happens, and how to make that a reality. She shares the emails and Facebook messages she exchanged with family, friends and loved ones about her cancer, finding ways to make the entire situation as affirmative and uplifting as possible. This book is about as frankly honest as it gets.

If you have been diagnosed with cancer, have a family history of cancer, or are just interested in what would happen if your worst fears were confirmed, this book is a must-read. It's a guide to what occurred, including timelines and procedures, how to press forward with the least apprehension, dread and worry, and how to meet life's challenges, no matter what they are, with a strong and positive spirit. A truly great read!

The book also includes links to useful resources offering advice and information on almost everything related to breast cancer: procedures, financial aid, fund raising, going flat, palliative care, mastectomy clothing, Social Security and Medicare, tattoos, support forums, writing a will, and much more.
