Bettina Rössiger

"You have cancer" is probably the worst sentence one can hear from a doctor. But how does one cope with such a diagnosis? Giving up is not an option here. Bettina Rössiger faced this very problem, and even twice. She shares her experiences in her biographical book "You Don't Have to Walk on Breasts." She takes us along on her fight against her toughest opponent. In doing so, we learn a lot about medical intricacies and the nature of her therapy. But beyond that, it is much more. It showcases the entire emotional spectrum of such a confrontation: the psychological and physical lows, the energy drainers and givers, the fighting spirit, but also the positive attitude with which she repeatedly confronted cancer and ultimately won this battle. A factual account that touches the heart but also shows that one must accept life with all its challenges as it is, in order to learn from it.
