”An in-depth exploration of the symptoms experienced by some women after breast cancer treatment, giving voice to a neglected aspect of the breast cancer experience . . . This book calls important attention to the plight of these women.”
—Patatricia A. Ganz, University of California, Los Angeles, Schools of Medicine and Public Health

Chemo brain. Fatigue. Chronic pain. Insomnia. Depression. These are just a few of the ongoing, debilitating symptoms that plague some breast-cancer survivors long after their treatments have officially ended. While there are hundreds of books about breast cancer, ranging from practical medical advice to inspirational stories of survivors, what has been missing until now is testimony from the thousands of women who continue to struggle with persistent health problems.

After the Cure is a compelling read filled with fascinating portraits of more than seventy women who are living with the aftermath of breast cancer. Emily K. Abel is one of these women. She and her colleague, Saskia K. Subramanian, whose mother died of cancer, interviewed more than seventy breast cancer survivors who have suffered from post-treatment symptoms. Having heard repeatedly that “the problems are all in your head,” many don't know where to turn for help. The doctors who now refuse to validate their symptoms are often the very ones they depended on to provide life-saving treatments. Sometimes family members who provided essential support through months of chemotherapy and radiation don't believe them. Their work lives, already disrupted by both cancer and its treatment, are further undermined by the lingering symptoms. And every symptom serves as a constant reminder of the trauma of diagnosis, the ordeal of treatment, and the specter of recurrence.

Most narratives about surviving breast cancer end with the conclusion of chemotherapy and radiation, painting stereotypical portraits of triumphantly healthy survivors, women who not only survive but emerge better and stronger than before. Here, at last, survivors step out of the shadows and speak compellingly about their “real” stories, giving voice to the complicated, often painful realities of life after the cure.

Based on the culture and heritage of Asian-Indian women, Waiting for the Perfect Dawn analyzes the journeys made by five generations of women who struggle against subordination, an oppressive caste system, religious upheaval, and domestic violence as they fight for equal rights in India.

These five ladies, who all experience both the beauty and burdens of being a woman in a traditional Indian society, struggle to live the life they yearn for. They demonstrate the growing pains of women caught in a bicultural world-a struggle between Eastern traditions and Western influence. But can they triumph over the confines of a narrow-minded society and its traditions?

Author Annu Subramanian exposes domestic violence and class/caste integration and also explores a global approach to Asian-Indian social issues while seamlessly incorporating elements of suspense, mystery, and romance.
