The Girlfriend's guide to breast cancer. Finding strength
Description
Fighting cancer requires allies-and friends who are going through the same battle can be powerful supporters indeed. This program presents six women from the ABC News team as they open up about their breast cancer diagnosis and treatment. From seemingly small details-such as how to correctly position a wig or find the right bra-to the monumental tasks of informing family members and selecting the appropriate doctor, each woman speaks candidly and movingly about what it is like to be engaged in the battle of her life. The need for optimism, self-love, and a well-developed sense of humor forms a common thematic thread throughout this eye-opening discussion.
