Editorial Review:
Laughing through the Tears of Breast Cancer is a source of inspiration for women who have recently been diagnosed with breast cancer, and for their caregivers. The easy-to-read style of writing takes you through a year-long journey of dealing with the emotional experiences of the breast cancer diagnosis and the physical treatments that lead to eventual healing.
Although it is a personal journey, this story offers enough similarities that help those who are part of the breast cancer "sisterhood" recognize that, even as they are experiencing their own pain related to this diagnosis, many blessings will result.
By sharing her story through journal writings, emails and inspirational messages, Carla creates enjoyable reading, in a girl-talk format, with an abundant amount of practical information about breast cancer. You will laugh while the tears flow from your eyes as you read her story and share her experiences.

 From the inital fear of hearing the diagnosis through the courage of facing treatment and beyond, 2007-08-24
I was honored to be on the receiving list of Carla's "Metamorphosis" emails as she went through this experience, but the book brought even more insight and inspiration and a better understanding of her journey. I have given this book to several friends who have faced the same or similar diagnosis - it gave them comfort to read Carla's account and to know that they shared many of the same experiences and emotions.

A courageous & inspiring story, 2007-08-20
Anyone going through a life-changing situation such as cancer, no matter what type, can benefit from this book. The importance of humor, accepting help from others, and believing God is with us every step of our journey is echoed throughout this very inspirational book. Carla writes with such honesty, courage, and hope; you can't help but feel uplifted & strengthened after reading it. I highly recommend this book!
