Is breast cancer a laughing matter? Jill Foer Hirsch tells us that while it might not be true for everyone, she couldn't help but laugh at the unexpected, bizarre and downright hilarious experiences she had while working her way through a mastectomy, chemotherapy and reconstruction surgery. What's so funny about breast cancer? Well, there was the breast implant that mysteriously migrated to her armpit, her inspired breast cancer haikus and advice on how to properly accessorize a hospital gown, to name a few. In her witty, inimitable style, Hirsch shares the good, the bad, the ugly and the funny about her journey.
