Booby Trap: Breast cancer is just like pregnancy, only different.

First came boobs, then came marriage, then came baby in the baby carriage. Then came cancer. Who knew that having cancer would be so reminiscent of being pregnant? Booby Trap provides this wacky perspective in order to help patients laugh through their dark days and to give caregivers the tools to try to understand. The heightened sense of smell, the nausea, the food restrictions, and the need for a new wardrobe are just some of the strange ways that these two situations are the same. This book chronicles the author’s first-hand knowledge of both cancer and parenthood and leans on the common experiences of pregnancy and motherhood to illustrate what undergoing cancer treatment is really like.
