The Murder Book

Kim Davies

Oxford University Press Academic US

Lobular Carcinoma in Situ (LCIS) is a type of breast cancer that lives within the milk glands, growing unnoticed, undetectable. Mammograms do not detect it, physical examination reveals nothing. Even after it is discovered - usually during tests for other problems - physicians almost always tell the patient not to worry about it and to take no action. "Watch and wait," they advise. It's a "safe" cancer. 
Current research indicates that risk factor profiles are not accurate. It also indicates that it is likely that all breast cancer begins in the milk glands and ducts as either LCIS or its closely related cousin, DCIS (ductal carcinoma in situ). 
Like most women, Kim Davies wanted to believe that she was "safe." But after researching LCIS, she realized that this cancer is safe only when it remains inside the walls of the milk glands. Once it breaks through, it becomes very active and is the most aggressive form of breast cancer. 
Women of the Amazon tribes (Amazon means "breastless") would cut off a breast to improve the accuracy of throwing a spear or shooting an arrow, to ensure their survival. Davies elected to have a double mastectomy to ensure hers. 
This book is about hope, about surviving, about making a tough choice. It's about doing what has to be done to ensure your survival. Although research on LCIS is scant, Davies presents that facts you need to make the decision to save your own life - to LIVE as an Amazon woman!
