When Melissa's gynecologist advises she get a test specifically for women with a history of malignancy in their families, she agrees. With seventeen immediate members of the family having had the disease, she is aware of she might not be happy with the results. But nothing can prepare Melissa for the results: She studies eighty-seven percent positive for breast malignancy and forty-four percent positive for ovarian malignancy, both by age forty. She encounters a twenty percent chance of the cancer repeating in under four years if she opts for chemotherapy and radiation. Those aren't good chances, and Melissa makes a brave decision: She's both breasts removed and undergoes the procedure of breast reconstruction. In Perky Mutant, she shares how she made challenging decisions, how surgeries afflicted her body, and what helped her get through the recovery process. She also includes week-by-week progressive images to help other women going through the breast reconstruction process. With a cast of character types by her side which includes her partner, "Studly", Melissa in some way maintains her laughter, wit, and expectation. An inspirational storyline, Perky Mutant will help patients, their friends and family members learn, manage and laugh.
