About this book

Getting told you have thyroid gland cribriform morular carcinoma is like being handed a map of a country you've never heard of, in a language you don't speak. The name alone is a mouthful. Your doctor rattled off words like 'cribriform' and 'morular' and 'carcinoma' and then the room went quiet. You nodded, but the only thing you really heard was: cancer. This guide is the friend who sits down next to you and says, 'Okay, let's go through this one piece at a time.'

When I got this diagnosis, the only thing in my head was 'what the hell is that?' This guide answered that in the first chapter without making me feel stupid. It gave me real words to use at my next doctor appointment and made me feel like I wasn't alone. It doesn't pretend it's easy, but it doesn't wallow either. I've already sent the link to my sister.

I found this after a week of panicking and pretending I wasn't. The chapter on symptoms was weirdly calming — like, okay, that weird feeling I had? Normal. Explained. I'm not giving it five stars because I still don't love that it made me cry in Chapter 1, but honestly, I needed that. It's honest and it's practical.

It's a decent overview, and the explanations are easy to follow. I wish it had gone deeper into some of the treatment comparisons, but I guess that's what the doctor is for. It helped me put my questions in order, which was worth it. A bit on the 'hold your hand' side for me, but I could see it being just right for someone who's more nervous than I was.
