RISE: Living Life Over Cancer is a blend of memoir and practical guidance for those living with cancer, survivors, caregivers, and anyone seeking to live well in the face of uncertainty. Drawing from lived experience with recurrent stage IV breast cancer, Betty Jean Aucoin shares an integrative approach that supports mind, body, heart, and spirit while living alongside ongoing treatment.

Am I going to die?

This is the first question Betty Jean Aucoin asks when diagnosed with recurrent stage IV breast cancer.

No, her doctors tell her. But your journey ahead will be one without a cure at this time.

Over the past twenty-five years, there has been a significant increase in the diagnosis of cancer. Almost everyone has either been diagnosed or knows someone who has been. Conventional treatment plans have primarily focused on using drugs to combat cancer. However, many of these medications come with serious side effects and do not always address patients' holistic needs involving the mind, body, heart, and spirit.

When Betty Jean was diagnosed with breast cancer for a second time, she realized she needed to explore additional options beyond her medications. Determined to support her healing and quality of life, she began researching a multifaceted, integrative approach to living well alongside treatment.

This is the story of her remarkable journey-an engaging and informative blend of memoir and self-help that emphasizes the importance of an integrative approach to cancer care and overall well-being. Topics include healthy eating, exercise, self-care, mindfulness, travel, and the support of family and friends. Each piece of advice is made practical and personal, grounded in the author's study of healing practices.

You can thrive while living life over cancer.
