Slapped Awake

When a diagnosis of breast cancer upended her life in her early 40's, Deborah Hampton found herself confronted not only with medical and treatment issues, but larger issues about what it means to be a woman, to be fully alive, and to make sense of suffering and adversity. The persistence of her breast cancer over a decade has forced her to forge a relationship with her disease and to create a life that includes the presence of cancer as a partner. Her honesty, courage, and humor in this journey provide one woman's map into enemy territory and a guide to befriending an adversary.Hampton, Deborah Lang is the author of 'Slapped Awake', published 2007 under ISBN 9781933912301 and ISBN 1933912308.
