What Happens When They Don't Grow Back: The Upside Down View of Life After a Bilateral Mastectomy - Hardcover

by Peta-Ann Wood (Author)

After breast cancer treatment, Peta-Ann is elegantly rebelling. She is staying flat. Being herself. Stylishly. Authentically. No boobs required.

From Peta-Ann's unique view of life with giant breasts and then without, no subject is sacred in this light-hearted, somewhat quirky tale about life after a bilateral mastectomy. Do not expect normal from this book. Normal is, in fact, debunked.

This is an upside down view of how and why Peta-Ann went against society's perception that women need breasts to be accepted and chose to stay flat - meaning no prosthesis, no reconstruction, and very concave ribs.

Throughout this odyssey there was much ignoring of her own inner-knowing and intuition. But Peta-Ann got there, and she shares how. Her elegantly unique toolkit is filled to the brim with the science stuff, the woo-woo and everything in between.

"... enormously inspirational, even for anyone who hasn't had a bilateral mastectomy. Every life has challenges which can overwhelm us ... or strengthen us. Peta-Ann's heartfelt, unique book gives you powerful strategies on how to manoeuvre through life's hiccups and trials to come out on the other side radiant and filled with life force energy. ... on track to be a classic read for anyone considering a mastectomy. It's filled with practical research, but at the same time gives credence to the power of spirit on your healing journey. Highly recommended!"
