About the Author
Travis Brady is surviving and thriving past her Stage 3A ER+ PR+ breast cancer diagnosis in 2016. In her quest to help others like herself, Brady interviewed more than 50 breast cancer survivors, learning their needs and stories about getting through treatment. What she uncovered is that all the women were looking for positive survivor stories to give them direction and hope.
About the Book
Accessible, heartfelt, and witty, this short collection of simple, practical tips offers self-care, healing, and recovery, from a stage-3 breast cancer survivor.
“Before I started my treatment, I spoke to an oncologist at Johns Hopkins. He said, ‘Travis, you have to make room for treatment.’ He knew by speaking with me for just a few minutes I was trying to systematically plan each step like a project at work. That was not going to do. I heeded his advice, allowing myself the time and space to check in every day to see how I felt—to see what I needed and how to support myself.”
When Travis Brady was diagnosed with an aggressive form of breast cancer, she sought advice from friends, and their friends, and their friends of friends—women who had been treated before her. She needed tips to make this process smoother, gentler, and more manageable.
With this book, Travis offers you all the information she wished she had when she was first diagnosed—tips and practices that made her feel more in control in an uncontrollable situation.
The organization of this book is designed to sequentially walk with you through treatment. The first section, Support, helps you get started by assembling your care team, seeking a second opinion, and advocating for your health. In the next section, Prepare, Travis shares specific practices that helped her physically cope and find comfort. In Nourish, she gives you a short-cut to the nutritional choices that supported her body. Heal takes you through holistic health practices you may not have considered but might be open to now. And finally, Enjoy reminds you to cultivate experiences where you derive great pleasure and satisfaction.
