Be a Survivor

Your Guide to Breast Cancer Treatment

Few experiences are more devastating than being told you have breast cancer, and not being able to understand the treatment options available to you. Dr. Lange knows. When his wife, also a physician, was diagnosed with breast cancer, both were overwhelmed by the complexity of the information they had to process. Be a Survivor was inspired by their desire to make the journey easier for others.

Previous editions of this book have been award-winning bestsellers, on the recommended lists of all major breast cancer organizations. But, recognizing that people learn better by combining reading with viewing, Dr. Lange has taken an innovative approach to bringing valuable information within the grasps of all readers:

Now, for the first time, the Be a Survivor book is available with its own DVD!

Readers can:

  • SEE videos of procedures

  • HEAR candid stories by survivors

  • READ the superbly well crafted text

 

Be A Survivor: Your Guide to Breast Cancer Treatment is available by visiting http://www.beasurvivor.com or at major book resellers.
