One out of every two people in the U.S. will get cancer in their lifetime. Being a type A personality, Lauren sat down to write a highly informative yet personable book to help others navigate their diagnosis, to try to give them back a little bit of power and be able to advocate for themselves. She talks about all the things she wishes she''d known about what patients go through after receiving a cancer diagnosis. She provides tips for every step of the process, such as navigating doctor''s appointments, chemo, surgeries, radiation, grants, caretakers and support systems, as well as the process as a whole. She hopes telling the story of her own journey can help others get through this difficult time in their lives.
