Book Cover & Preview Text
Never have I gotten dressed and fled a doctors office so fast. Tears flowed down my cheeks and I began to sob. Sitting in my car in the parking lot I felt so humiliated. This wasn't my body, it was a body drugged, disfigured and discarded by Cancer. It was so bad, even the doctor was making fun of it.

About the Book
At the age of forty-five and with no family history of breast cancer, author Tamara Kaye Severin received the staggering news that she had malignant tumors in both breasts. A busy wife and mother with a prospering career, she was used to being independent and doing it all herself. She soon learned, however, that that would not be the way for her to beat cancer. In her memoir, Pink Lemonade, Tamara shares the story of her three-year struggle to accept the things she cannot change (her health), change the things she can (her healthcare), and the wisdom to seek out the best treatment available, regardless of the difficulties she encountered along the way. What’s more, she overcame these serious health obstacles while raising a teenager. With a wry sense of humor, she reveals the details of her battle and provides insights for those facing a life-threatening disease and for the people who love them. Hers is a testament of God’s faithfulness and fortification. Reading her inspirational journey back to health, you can share in her victory, as life gives her lemons—and she stuffs them in her bra.
