The Cockeyed Nipple: A Survivor's Blog

D-L Nelson's friends will tell you she is incredibly strong-willed with an infectiously positive attitude toward life, and she needed every bit of that spirit when she learned she had breast cancer. This book represents her day-by-day diary of the cancer experience, adapted from a blog she wrote as one means of coping with the crisis. If you have been through a similar trauma, or know someone who has, you'll appreciate the moments of fear, fortitude, humor, and hubris. American born, living in Switzerland, Nelson represents women worldwide in emphasizing the importance of regular physical checkups and mammograms.
