Serving as doctor to the Americans “wintering over” at the South Pole in 1999, Jerri Nielsen made headlines when she discovered a lump in her breast that a self-administered biopsy revealed to be an aggressive, fast-growing cancer. No flights in or out of Antarctica are possible during the continent’s long winter, and Nielsen’s account of giving herself chemotherapy while she and her fellow “Polies” waited for the weather to break is even more gripping than the news reports at the time.
