Summary

In "Welcome to Cancerland" by Barbra Ehnrenreich, she talks about as what she describes a battle against breast cancer. She was always going to get mammograms done. She considered getting a mammogram was basically a chore like going to the store. Until the one day she got a mammogram that changed her life when it told her she had cancer. Then she was always going to the doctors to make sure that the cancer had not grown and gotten worse.

Plus she also says how her life has not been the same since she got diagnosed with cancer. Then she goes on to explain how it changed her life in the bad ways and how it affected her life for the best and what it improved.
