Overview

Suzanne Dalton has accomplished much in her life—she is an artist, writer, actor, graphic designer, and program manager. The one undertaking for which she did not sign up was breast cancer. In her new memoir, a Readers Favorite 5 Star Top Award Winner, humor guides Suzanne through difficult decisions about treatments, surgeries, and reconstruction. Her story, told through witty letters to friends, includes a party before surgery, a zany poodle, and refusal to let cancer define her.

Description

This is a beautifully told story and a guide to aid anyone diagnosed with a life-threatening medical event whether they’ve completed the journey or are just embarking upon the path.

Readers’ Favorite Review - 5 stars award:

“Dalton’s honest, clean, and crisp writing style and her well-paced narrative make this a book that anyone can enjoy and benefit from. The humor had me chuckling from start to finish. More than a few comedians could take a lesson from it.”

Suzanne graduated from Wayne State University with a BS in geology. She studied fine art, industrial design, watercolor, and photography at the College for Creative Studies and has a TEFL diploma and a Master's in Applied Project Management from Villanova University.

Before she retired, Suzanne worked as a software development program manager at an automotive company in Detroit, where she still lives with her husband and standard poodle, AKC Grand Champion Rosebar "Time to Party, a.k.a.

She continues daily journaling about her adventures in travel, horseriding, carriage driving, weight training, and poodles.
