The Snarky Girl's Guide to Breast Cancer Andrea Ciccocioppo Rose

Maybe you've recently been diagnosed with breast cancer. Or perhaps you are a survivor. Or maybe you are a support system to a friend or family member. Chances are, you are scared. It's OK. You aren't alone!A cancer diagnosis is a life-altering event. It may not kill you, but it takes a shot at your sense of safety, sanity and self. You are probably wondering, "How will I get through this?"The answer is day by day, week by week, month by month ... and so on. It's not easy. Everyone around you looks at you like you are a victim. I didn't understand that. And I didn't like it. You won't find sympathy here. You won't read words of pity. I share with you my journey from my-snarky-point of view. I hope it brings a smile to your face as you relate to some of the things you'll read. Because that's what it's all about: making the most of your journey. Even when it's a journey you didn't choose ... and even when it sucks.
