FROM ZERO TO MASTECTOMY: WHAT I LEARNED AND YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT STAGE 0 BREAST CANCER, chronicles Jackie Fox's journey through the unique challenges of stage 0 DCIS breast cancer. Although not life-threatening, DCIS can require the same treatment and cause the same stress as advanced cancers. When Fox's oncologist tried to reassure her by saying her DCIS was not "real cancer," she responded, "It's close enough! Someone sign me up for the fake mastectomy!" Fox describes her journey with humor, candor and compassion for women in this situation. A Q&A chapter with Fox's medical team addresses common questions.
