    You Can Be Made Whole after Cancer!
  

*by S***L on Reviewed in the United States on February 26, 2023*

This book was recommended to me by the Center for Restorative Breast Center in New Orleans for me to read to prepare me for reconstruction surgery. It covers all types of reconstruction and the things you will possibly go through during the entire process. You may NOT experience everything in the book but you will be aware of the different situations and what to watch for. I am 2.5 weeks out and had the DIEP reconstruction procedure. Mine was a more invasive due to long term radiation damage (9+ hours). It has taken almost 2 weeks before I could truly say I am glad I had it done. In case you are considering reconstruction, I am 62, a little overweight, and I would consider no other place but Center for Restorative Breast Heath to have this surgery done. In the book they recommend various things to purchase and bring. Use your own judgement. I recommend the Brobes if you will have drains.

    A Key Guidebook to the Breast Cancer Journey
  

*by V***. on Reviewed in the United States on February 11, 2016*

Well, I have to say that I purchased this book as part of the research I was doing on a book about the breast cancer hysteria to which American women are subjected. I had no interest in breast reconstruction after my own double mastectomy -- you would have to have been there and to have been looking over my shoulder to understand why I made that decision. I'm a trained researcher: research is what I do, and a careful study of the issue convinced me that the best way to cut short the torture was...well, to cut short the torture. ;-)However, a dear friend of mine was diagnosed with a 99% noninvasive "cancer" (almost never moves outside the breast) plus two benign lumps and forthwith elected a double mastectomy She, being 20 years younger than I and blessed with a husband, elected to have breast reconstruction. So I was very happy to have this book to give to her.For women who decide reconstruction is the right decision for them, this is a very useful book, with lots of information on types of reconstruction, pro's and cons, and what to expect. It's an important tool for any woman who is drawn into the breast cancer journey.

    An invaluable resource!
  

*by G***E on Reviewed in the United States on December 1, 2012*

The Breast Reconstruction Guidebook by Kathy Steligo is an invaluable resource for anyone undergoing a mastectomy, whether it is in response to a cancer diagnosis or prophylactic.  I have yet to come across a resource that has so much of the relevant information in one place - this really is a comprehensive guidebook.  I am currently preparing for a prophylactic bilateral mastectomy and have spent many hours online researching the topic.  I have been documenting the journey in a blog [(...)] and after reading this book find that most of what I read elsewhere and wrote on my blog is in this guide.  I wish I knew I could just read this book and everything else would be old news!This guidebook presents all of the pros, cons, potential complications, options, and much more related to mastectomy and breast reconstruction in terms that anyone can understand.  It also guides the reader through finding the right surgical team, how to deal with the insurance company, how to handle unsatisfactory results, and even has a section written specifically for friends and family outlining what they can do to help.  I wish I found this amazing resource sooner!  I highly recommend this guidebook.
