You've Been Diagnosed with Breast Cancer - What Now?

Offering insight, tools, and resources from my own walk with breast cancer for support as you walk yours. 

When I received my diagnosis, I felt like I was immediately strapped into a runaway roller coaster car.  One of the biggest "ah-ha's" for me was the realization that I could - and should - be an active participant in the process.

As a Mamma, we don't usually get sick days.  Planning ahead can make it possible for you to feel confident your chicks have what they need so you can focus on recovery and healing.

From the moment I received my diagnosis, I wanted to learn as much as possible about the disease, treatment options and how I could promote my own health and healing. Good news and bad news:  there is a LOT of information out there.  I've synthesized a list of the books and podcasts I have personally found most helpful thus far in my walk with Cancer.  

Coming Soon: inside the room where it happens and more hints from my personal experience with 6 weeks of treatment..

If you're one of the many new breast cancer patients on the "younger" side and pre-menopausal, many treatment paths will involve a quick shove into (medically or surgically induced) menopause, which may or may not have been on your radar at the time of diagnosis.  Coming Soon:  resources to help you navigate this premature shift into "the pause."
