Publisher's Synopsis
In a series of online journal entries by a nurse who becomes a patient, Elizabeth Wertz Evans provides readers with an unvarnished look at how a healthcare professional deals with a diagnosis of breast cancer after having experienced more than one person's share of losses, followed by the news of spread of the disease to her liver after a long period of remission. To help guide readers through her journey, Liz recruited Anne Katz, PhD, RN, FAAN, author of several best-selling books on cancer, to explain the evidence and science behind the experiences shared in this book and to provide insight into what it is like for a woman who is a nurse living with metastatic cancer. Liz's main purpose and hope for writing this book is to help other patients fighting metastatic breast cancer as well as the nurses who care for them.
