MICHELLE HEATON, singer, TV presenter, mother and wife, underwent a double mastectomy and hysterectomy to reduce the risk of cancer. The surgeries led her to early-onset menopause in her mid-thirties.In Hot Flush, Michelle tells the story of how she discovered she had the BRCA2 gene mutation, how, at first, she tried to shy away from the reality of a diagnosis, how she came to terms with it and the powerful and lasting effects this and her subsequent surgeries have had on her and her family. Outspoken and raw, Hot Flush details how Michelle struggled to deal with the menopause - physically and emotionally - as well as the impact it had on her marriage, family life and her work. She shares the challenges she has faced - the explosive moods, the lack of energy and mourning the loss of her sex drive - and the life lessons she has learned along the way to stay healthy in body and mind.Inspiring and unfailingly honest, Hot Flush gives a candid and at times heartbreaking insight into one young woman's extraordinary and unique experience of an event common to all women.
