If you or someone you know has ever received a breast cancer diagnosis, you understand how overwhelming and scary it can be. In "PEEK-A-BOOB," the author offers a helping hand to those navigating the difficult journey from diagnosis to survivorship. Drawing from personal experience and thorough research, this book provides a roadmap through the maze of treatment protocols and medical jargon while also serving as a source of comfort and inspiration. With heartwarming quotes and uplifting encouragement, the author helps readers find solace when grappling with doubts and despair. "PEEK-A-BOOB" is a companion, guide, and testament to the resilience of the human spirit. This is the book the author wishes she had when she heard her doctor say, "You have breast cancer." "In this book about surviving breast cancer, Stutchman captures the fragility of life through her expressive, beautiful writing. As she navigates through her often-poignant journey, you can feel her fears, her brief doubt of faith, and her uncertainties about her future. The love and importance of her family is ever present. I was delighted to see the chapter written by her sister. Her candidness about her intimacy with her husband spoke to a real situation many may not have considered. While it is just one person's experience, the author's presentation brings the reader a feeling of candid reality. There is truly a valuable and possibly humorous takeaway from her story. I recommend this book for any woman, at any age, who is diagnosed with breast cancer." ---Jodi Cooper, Susan G. Komen(R) Volunteer-Event Committee Chairperson "Three of the most frightening words one can ever hear are: YOU HAVE CANCER. Medical books and journals provide all kinds of facts and figures, such as staging, grading, treatments, outcomes, and survival rates, which are all important. In this well-written book, Shelley Malicote Stutchman shares her feelings and experiences, from the first suspicious mammogram to ringing the cancer-free bell with her fianc�. This was followed by the whys, the what ifs, and worries of cancer recurrence. Shelley speaks of hope and faith in that order and gives a wonderful definition of both. Her journey in the diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer is both enlightening, very personal, and scary for anyone who has breast cancer or any other type of cancer. Shelley explains how her treatment was multifaceted to include physical, mental, social, emotional, and spiritual experiences. In the last chapter, the male perspective is given. Early diagnosis and treatment are the best keys to survival in this all too common and dreaded disease. This book teaches one that knowledge is power and suggests that one should not be hubris while navigating through available treatment options." ---Michael B. Scott, D.O., Physician and Surgeon, Retired
