Fabulously Fighting

About the Book

With a brand-new baby and feeling as if her life was falling into place, Fabianna Marie was diagnosed with not only an autoimmune disease that was damaging her organs but was just handed the diagnosis of breast cancer at age twenty-seven. Fabianna was a new mother and a wife who felt no longer in control of her life. Cancer had the wheel and wasn’t letting go. Fabianna Marie was searching for a book about breast cancer that wasn’t full of medical jargon that scared the crap out of her. She wanted a book that would help her cope with everyday life. The last eleven years of battling cancer have been a journey during which she has learned how to live each day with love, laughter, and honesty. Fabianna hopes that sharing her story can be that resource for others she didn’t have.
