I am sooo grateful for Clarissas book. When I got my BRCA results I spent so much time in seeking for all kind of information about the issue. If I only knew about this book earlier...
In my opinion it contains all you need to know (medical, biological and scientific information explained in a „normal“ and understandable way) and it gives valuable emotional support - which is so much more than „just“ information, because it is something only a BRCA gene mutation carrier himself can really do. I found myself so often while reading this book and when I held it in my hands for the first time, I just could not put it away. It’s definitively a must-have for all BRCA gene mutation carriers!
Help yourself. Read it.

Everything you thought you knew about BRCA gene mutations, I promise is nothing compared to the information you will gain from this book.
She keeps her own personal journey until the end so that the whole first 3/4 is facts on top of facts.
