Every year millions of women all around the world get the message: “You have breast cancer”. The woman in this documentary responded “If so many women get contracted with cancer, why not me?”

In “Why not me” we meet a woman in the middle of her career. She feels well and regards herself as immortal when breast cancer suddenly hits her.

“Why not me” lets us follow her struggle for survival, from the desperate seeking for more information through physically as well as mentally trying medical treatment and the loss of her hair to the day the doctors say: “You have won the battle”.

From the first concern about life or death until the first glimpses of hope for the future this is a “must-see-documentary” for all people who get breast cancer and other grave diseases – and of course also for their families, other relatives and close friends.
