Award-winning authors, cancer patients, survivors and medical professionals, are all singing the praises of Me, the Crazy Woman and Breast Cancer and Stacy Shelton.
Named Oklahoma’s Best Author for her book Me, the Crazy Woman, and Breast Cancer, multi-award-winning former broadcast and print journalist Stacy Shelton, chronicles not one, but two diagnoses of breast cancer. Once diagnosed, Shelton found a new presence, which she dubbed ‘Crazy Woman, ‘ had taken up residence in her brain, wreaking havoc and forcing her to face her own mortality. As she learned to navigate the once foreign world of cancer, she realized that during the subsequent seven surgeries, including a bilateral mastectomy, several of her medical issues were falling through the cracks, leaving her even more vulnerable than she already was. Using her talents as a writer, she took the opportunity to bring to life this heroic, poignant, and enlightening work, to help others going through any life-altering journey.
Me, the Crazy Woman, and Breast Cancer, provides a roadmap to an almost impossible journey, and gives the patient, survivor, family member, and loved one, a window into the psyche of someone facing a life-threating illness. It is a timeless, and hauntingly moving memoir that will leave you knowing all of life’s lessons are to be cherished.
