Tammy Miller stopped by the studio to talk about her latest book, "The Lighter Side of Breast Cancer Recovery: Lessons Learned Along the Path to Healing."

You'll be following the story of a woman who has battled breast cancer, but on a different path from most. 

From her website:
"From surgeons equipped with clown noses, to going through surgery wearing a feather boa, Tammy looks at this very serious topic with a lighthearted attitude and some words of encouragement for others facing a difficult journey.  Not only does it contain a personal story about dealing with a difficult challenge in life using humor, but it also contains an excellent reference section for newly diagnosed people."

There are many important lessons to be learned from Tammy's book, and she shared three of them on the show.
1.    The value of a positive attitude in our daily living
2.    The idea that we have choices is empowering
3.    Where can we look for "attitude lifters"?

Tammy's bestselling book is now available as an e-book.
