Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Brenda Coffee pulls no punches when talking to breast cancer husbands. No subject is off limits, and she keeps her message short and to the point. In her brutally honest and disarmingly candid manner, Brenda offers emotional support and frank information about subjects patients, caregivers and doctors may not be comfortable discussing. As a breast cancer family, Brenda and her husband understand that caregiving does not come naturally to most men. Breast cancer affects the whole family. Even with world-class care, much is quickly demanded of patients and caregivers. Add to that the high percentage of husbands who leave their wives after they are diagnosed, perhaps because husbands do not know what to do, or how to feel, and countless families are torn apart at a time when they need one another most. With few books directed at helping husbands and caregivers, The Breast Cancer Caregiver: Husbands & Heroes, offers frank discussions ranging from point of diagnosis to sex and/or lack thereof, to resuming your life when treatment is over.
