A work of raw courage.
Tim Wilson , Sydney
Been there. Done that. But had never read the book and so glad I did. A cathartic journey retracing my own life 12 months earlier. Buy the book...cheaper and better than counselling!

'The Breast is History’ is strength at its peak. While enduring raw pain and the scars of a terrible disease, Bronwyn dared to speak out honestly to reach and educate others. I was in awe then, as I am now. A brilliant book from a brilliant mind.

I was inspired by the the gems of wisdom and realisations that unfolded in Bronwyn’s journey. She has a wonderful story to tell and some real opportunities to get people to stop or slow their frantic lifestyles and take a long hard look at themselves and how their family and friends fit into their lives.

This is brilliant, gripping and unputdownable. Bronwyn is a great writer but it's her attitude that was so compelling for me. I hoped a little of her wisdom, positivity and humour wiped off on me as I read it.

Your blog is a tremendously inspiring to read everyday. You don't just make lemonade with the lemons, you make a cocktail with it, garnish and all. And you put pour it into a tall crystal glass with ice.

Your words made me laugh, they made me cry and most of all they inspired me. They also made me make the dreaded phone call to book in for my first mammogram! I am sorry to hear that your dearly beloved father-in-law passed away. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. I lost my Mum 3 months ago, a week before Christmas. The grieving process can be a long and lonely one, however, I found comfort in reading your words. Thank you.

Thoroughly entertaining!

You’ve put into words exactly how I felt during my journey and still do. Thanks for taking us on your journey with you.
