Sean Cooper is a really wonderful man - a brave man - who has faced male breast cancer and survived. Diagnosed in May 2007, his first thoughts were for his family and how they would get by if he were not there to provide for them. He was greatly supported by his wife and children, which helped him through this experience: "the love for my family, my love of life and wanting these to continue for years to come." Sean Cooper talks about his diagnosis and treatment, as well as how he dealt with his emotions.
