Sorry about you sister in laws diagnosis, but there is help out there. Sometimes Breast cancer support groups will post their name on bulletin boards at hospitals, her doctor might be able to refer her to a group. Also the American Cancer Society has a good Web page with chat rooms. Lots of information is given at no cost , survivors ask and answer openly any questions she might have.
Also she can call the American Cancer Society and ask for local volunteer to contact her , they will match her up with somebody of similar circumstances and give her information booklets.
One of the best books out there is Dr.Susan Love's Breast book. This book was wasmy "bible" thruout my journey with Breast cancer x2. It is written in understandable language in great detail , from diagnosis, various stages of breast cancer, types of treaments etc. Dr.Love is a great doctor and patient advocate in California , she has written several books on this subject.
