News and Reviews

This was a busy week for 'Now What?'!  Pam Stephan, the Breast Cancer Guide at About.com, gave our book a great review and published a blog post called "Survivors Dish Up Encouragement After Mastectomy".  A review of 'Now What?' was also published in the CAPHIS quarterly newsletter. CAPHIS is the Consumer and Patient Health Information Section of the Medical Library Association. Take a look!

It's All About Women Event

This wonderful event was held at Hudson Valley Hospital Center in Cortlandt, New York on March 29th.  It marked the opening of the new Women's Center including the Ashikari Breast Center, the Institute for Aesthetic and Reconstructive Surgery, and the Women's Imaging Center. I was so honored to be able to do a reading from 'Now What?' and to meet so many amazing women -- many of them shared their stories of breast cancer and mastectomy recovery with me after the talk.
