Overview

You've just heard the words: ""You have breast cancer."" Now what? There's no handbook for the whirlwind that follows-no script for the appointments, the fear, the changes, or the way your world suddenly feels divided into before and after. But if you're looking for someone who's been there, who understands the chaos and the courage it takes to keep showing up, this book is for you. In It's Not You, It's Cancer: The Slightly Inappropriate Guide to Breast Cancer, author and Navy veteran Brenda M. Lee brings humor, honesty, and a healthy dose of ""real talk"" to one of life's hardest journeys. This isn't a medical manual. It's a companion for the in-between moments-the 3 a.m. worries, the post-chemo fog, the hard conversations, and the quiet victories. With warmth and wit, Brenda shares stories from her own battle as well as insights from others who have faced diagnosis, surgery, treatment, and recovery. You'll find: Real stories of strength, fear, and healing from survivors and caregivers Guidance on what to ask your doctors (because you don't know what you don't know) Honest talk about body changes, relationships, and identity Humor that reminds you it's okay to laugh-even now Encouragement for the messy, beautiful process of rebuilding your life This is the book Brenda wishes she'd had when she was diagnosed. It's a reminder that you are not your diagnosis, and that healing isn't just surviving-it's rediscovering who you are, one imperfect, courageous day at a time. Whether you're newly diagnosed, deep in treatment, years into survivorship, or supporting someone you love, It's Not You, It's Cancer will meet you where you are-with honesty, compassion, and inappropriate grace. Because sometimes the best way to face cancer is to tell the truth, laugh through the chaos, and remember: it's not you-it's cancer.
