This comprehensive handbook provides jargon-free information on the wide range of practical issues women face as they navigate the journey back to health, including: -Managing physical problems such as fatigue, hot flashes, and aches and pains-Handling relationships: your children, your partner, your parents, your friends.-How to regain emotional and sexual intimacy-Coping with financial and workplace issues-Genetic testing: why, whether, when -How to move beyond the fear of recurrence-And much moreThis indispensable book will help you rediscover your capacity for joy as you move forward into the future--as a survivor.From the Trade Paperback edition.
