Prescribed Reading

This is a link to what is titled "Prescribed Reading".

The site has magazines and books recommended for women with breast cancer. While I have not read any of the publications (yet) and cannot vouch for them personally, I thought that you might be interested in what is being recommended as "good reads".

There are cookbooks, books to make you laugh, self-help type books, even a magazine subscription. Some of the titles are:

Intimacy After Cancer - A Woman's Guide by Dr. Sally Kydd & Dana Rowett
Intimacy after Cancer takes an in-depth look at how women respond to, deal with, and overcome barriers to intimacy after a life-changing cancer diagnosis.

Crazy Sexy Cancer Tips by Kris Carr

Cancer Vixen: A True Story by Marisa Acocella Marchetto
Cartoonist Marisa Acocella Marchetto's graphic memoir about her battle with breast cancer. Poignant and funny, this inspiring story is made all the more powerful by Marchetto's cartoons. A must read!
