E-book Title: Accepting With Grace
Author: Sharon Tregoning
Book Description: Mastectomy & Reconstruction ~ My Choice Before Breast Cancer
What would you do if doctors discovered you had a potential 80% chance of getting breast cancer?
Sharon Tregoning decided to do something. She'd already lost her sister Bess to breast cancer, had developed three benign breast lumps herself, and was undergoing the nerve-wracking routine of annual mammograms and ultrasounds.
The catalyst for action arose with the startling revelation about her family's genetic history - five women in the last four generations of her family had succumbed to breast cancer, and three before the age of 45.
With full knowledge of her predisposition, Sharon decided to take control of her destiny.
She committed to a radical fight-back plan - a double mastectomy and breast reconstruction using her own tummy tissue.
Her husband Reid described the move as a "pre-emptive strike".
This is her very candid story - complete with graphic photographs - of that agonising decision, and her year-long road to recovery, in rebuilding her body, and reclaiming hope for a cancer-free future.
About The Author:
Sharon Tregoning was born in Melbourne in 1969 and began her career as a bank teller. Within a decade, she had powered up the corporate ladder to become a business services manager for Sensis, liaising with 15 business units in the lead up to the Y2K transition. It was through the company's Year 2000 Program that she met her husband and soul mate, Reid Tregoning.
Together with Sharon's daughter, they made the tree-change to Victoria's Yarra Valley to run boutique bed and breakfast - Forget Me Not Cottages - widely considered one of the stateís most romantic getaways. In 2008, the family migrated from bush to beach, settling in sunny Noosa, where Sharon and Reid have established an online personal development business.
Since writing about her double mastectomy and breast reconstruction, Sharon has founded a charity inspired by her sister Bess, who died of breast cancer at age 49. breastANGELS provides funding for breast reconstruction to women who have experienced, or are at high risk of, breast cancer. Now as she approaches 40, Sharon says she's finally found her life purpose: to empower women with breast cancer to recreate their bodies, and their lives.
