    There is much information available about Cancer. Advice on telling children, on how to help someone who has cancer, personal stories and general info. I also like the inspirational quotes.

  11. Sandy Klocinski says

    A must read for anyone dealing with a breast cancer diagnosis. It is Hollye’s real story–complete with humor, frustration and fear. This book would help me to increase my knowledge and information regarding cancer patients.

    I like that Allstate is involved. They are my insurance company. And I like the Delicate pink pashmina.

  16. Stephanie Phelps says

    Bless Hollye Jacobs for writing ’ The Silver Lining Companion Guide.’ I have my simulation appointment for radiation this week. Ms. Jacobs support and suggestions are wonderful!

    I love that this is free from Allstate. I have a friend who passed away from breast cancer. I think it would be very inspirational to read and then pass along to someone else.

    Hollye Jacobs is a sought after speaker, nurse, social worker, child development specialist, and the best selling author of The Silver Lining, A Supportive and Insightful Guide to Breast Cancer. Published in 2014 by Simon and Schuster, the book quickly reached the New York Times, Washington Post and LA Times Bestseller lists. In October 2014, she launched The Silver Lining Companion Guide, a condensed version of her original book that Allstate Insurance is distributing for free to every person impacted by breast cancer for a full year.
    Thanks for the contest.

  39. Jesselyn A/Jesstinger says

    As a two time breast cancer survivor myself ~ I know too well how devastating it is when you learn you have been afflicted with this dread disease. It’s almost like a state of shock the aloneness and terror that strike at you. Having the support of friends and family is essential ~ but reassuring resource like Silver Lining can also make a enormous difference in your outlook and state of mind matters so much when you are fighting this battle.

    I really appreciate this outreach ~ and that is is free and available in both English and Spanish, to download or order in hard copy.

    The inspirational quotes and encouragement to find light in dark places, are truly uplifting. I hope this book makes it’s way into the hands of many women fighting the same battle.
