"""Becoming the Best U is more than a how-to manual or recall of events. It provides inspiration, offers support, and raises the constant possibility of a new perspective and hope to anyone who has been brushed by one of life's many challenges. Nancy's wit, humor, and strength are intertwined throughout the pages of this honest and, at times, raw memoir. Cancer had no idea who it was dealing with."" -Dr. Lori Alfonse, M.D."
