If I Just Breathe
A memoir by Tina Koral
"The photographs from my wedding day show a joyful young couple, visibly excited to start a new life together. The promise of a happy home full of children shone in our eyes. The thrill of that day, of marrying my childhood love in a city filled with romance, will stay with me forever. What I did not know at the time was that along with something old, new, borrowed and blue, I carried a seven centimeter, rapidly growing mass of malignant cells in my breast. I was twenty-nine years old."

Praise for If I Just Breathe
"Tina Koral's journey highlights the issue that young women must know their body and advocate for themselves. A physician's words, 'You're too young to have breast cancer,' can have a devastating impact on a young woman's life. This book will inspire you to stand up for yourself and your boobies."
Marcia Stein, Chief Executive Officer, Young Survival Coalition
"An honest, compelling and inspiring story of one young woman's courageous struggle to get busy living in the wake of a life-altering disease. Tina is a great example of what it means to be a young adult affected by stupid
cancer."
Matthew Zachary, Founder/Executive Director of the I'm Too Young For This! Cancer Foundation and host of The Stupid Cancer Show
