A guide for men whose wives or girlfriends have been diagnosed with breast cancer.

Also examines the various treatments and suggests ways for readers to find sexual intimacy after mastectomy.

Abstract
"Parents are superheroes, especially when they're battling cancer. This empowering book follows a mother and her family through all the stages of her cancer -- diagnosis, surgery, chemotherapy and radiation -- and provides an honest and encouraging tool for talking with kids about serious illness. Lovingly upbeat and straightforward, this book is a much-needed and welcome source of comfort for any cancer-fighting family." - Cover
