Summary:

"The Silver Lining is both Jacobs' memoir and a practical, supportive resource for anyone whose life has been touched by breast cancer. In the first section of each chapter, she describes with humor and wisdom her personal experience and gives details about her diagnosis, treatment, side effects, and recovery. The second section of each chapter is told from Jacobs' point of view as a medical expert. Looking for and finding Silver Linings buoyed Jacobs from the time of her diagnosis throughout her double mastectomy, chemotherapy, radiation, and recovery. The Silver Lining is that she can now use the knowledge gleaned from her experience to try to make it better for those who have to follow her down this difficult path."--www.Amazon.com.
