About the Book (Excerpts & Info)

Stacy Shelton had to face every woman's worst nightmare when she was diagnosed, not once, but twice, with breast cancer. To make matters worse, a new presence, which she dubbed "Crazy Woman," took up residence in her brain, wreaking havoc and forcing her to face her own mortality.

By walking herself through her own death and conquering additional obstacles that sometimes seemed too much to survive, she discovered an enlightened sense of purpose, and a newfound way of living, free from fear.

Me, the Crazy Woman, and Breast Cancer is a hauntingly moving memoir that will leave you knowing all of life's lessons are to be cherished. More so, it provides a roadmap to solace for anyone afflicted with a life-threatening illness or anyone who loves them.

"Rarely have I found a story to be so gripping. A happy and successful businesswoman, wife, and mother who is thrown into the grip of a deadly sickness . . . twice! The author is totally, almost brutally, honest as she shares her sadness, rage, self-doubt, and struggles to keep her family, and her own sanity intact. Through her survival, she beautifully equips the current cancer victim with how to do the same."

~Bob Burg, coauthor, Wall St. Journal Bestseller, The Go-Giver

"Astonishing...Along with shock, fear, and pain, Stacy Shelton found strength, wisdom, and deep gratitude for her life, and her loved ones. Her story is a personal journey of courage, true love, and profound hope. It offers the same for others fighting cancer or for those who love someone with the disease. Her story will inspire you to savor each moment of your life, and to embrace all that it has to offer – including the obstacles."

~Svetlana Kim, author, White Pearl and I: A Memoir of a Political Refugee

"Stacy Shelton bravely shares an incredibly painful journey, yet manages to maintain a sense of dignity throughout. I know her story will give hope to many people struggling with illness, pain or plain old fear. Read it!"

~Libby Gill, author, You Unstuck: Mastering the New Rules of Risk-taking in Work & Life

"This book is a true work of art. It is written for the mother, daughter, son, husband, family, and friends whose loved one is battling breast cancer. One of the best features is the Do's and Don'ts section of how to help anyone you know dealing with a life-threatening disease."
