Book aids with treatment

I found this book incredibly helpful. After two years of having my arm so swollen it would not fit into many of my clothes, I found this book. It showed what exercises to do, how to do self-massage, how to bandage, and where to get help. It is complete with pictures that illustrate each step. I think this book is essential for anyone who's had treatment for breast cancer.
