Remarkable Journey: Breast Implant Illness and Cancer

En savoir plus sur le livre

Remarkable Breast Implant Illness and Cancer is the story of my two different breast cancers and the subsequent illnesses from a ruptured silicon implant and a mold-filled saline implant. From my journals, I document the strange and spiraling illnesses I experienced with no idea they came from my reconstructed breast implants. I felt frustration with not being believed extending to my physicians, my family and friends. I knew something was wrong. When I found out from social media how many women are affected with similar symptoms, I felt betrayed by the medical establishment. The book is written in two voices. The earliest writing was taken from my journals and is a raw expression of my journey from being bucked off a horse through my explant decision. Four years after the explant, I want to bring help to women in their physical, spiritual, and emotional health through my experiences of breast implant illness.
