This much-needed breast cancer resource specifically for the Hispanic woman is developed in consultation with a large national team of experts. As with all of the Be a Survivor resources this book features candid testimonials by Hispanic survivors. It is straightforward, easy-to-understand and contains objective and up-to-date information. The beautiful color photos and graphics enhance the learning process. Most importantly the book leaves the reader with a message of hope. The book addresses each step in the diagnosis, staging, treatment and recovery process and includes a chapter on end-of-life issues, and a section specifically for the patient’s partner or caregiver. This is not a straight translation from English into Spanish. In Latina focus groups around the United States Dr. Lange interviewed survivors and their significant others and rewrote many passages to make the book culturally relevant to speak to the Spanish speaking audience.
