Publisher's Summary: One in eight women in this country will develop breast cancer within a life expectancy of 85 years. Only 5-10 percent of breast cancers are linked to genetic history, yet there is little research as to the cause and the treatment can be as deadly as the disease. Breast cancer is still misunderstood and often a taboo subject even among women because of the fear and lack of researched information surrounding it. Yet, most everyone in America knows someone who has struggled or is struggling with this disease. The Breast Cancer Monologues address the myths and misunderstandings while giving voice to the women who know first-hand the effects of breast cancer.The Breast Cancer Monologues was produced by Dmae Roberts and the Breast Cancer Radio Arts Project, a collaboration of MediaRites Productions, The Media Project, Project Quest's Arquette Cancer Program and KBOO 90.7 FM community radio.
