When she was diagnosed with cancer at the age of 33, Patricia Kolesnicov ’09 had a flourishing career as a newspaper columnist and writer for Argentina’s Clarín. This book is a somber and realistic account of her breast cancer experience, from diagnosis to treatment to her return to work. Kolesnicov chronicles her reactions to treatment, which included chemotherapy, radiation, and even special diets, her dependency on those around her, and her frustration and anger at the betrayal of her own body.
