A Positive and Supportive Guide for Patients, Families and Friends.
Being diagnosed as having cancer is a shock for patient, family and friends. But it is no longer necessarily the death sentence it used to be and many people with cancer can be cured or go on to enjoy more years of active and fulfilling life.
Fiona Castle has herself experienced living alongside a cancer patient when her husband, Roy, was diagnosed. In this positive and informative guide she combines the practical, emotional and spiritual aspects to provide resourceful and supportive help for anyone having to cope with the illness.
She includes:
- Taking it in and asking the right questions
- Understanding the facts and how to optimise successful treatment
- How to get information and support
- Treatments and their side effects
- Living with cancer and the needs of carers
- How to help yourself with complementary and alternative therapies
- Terminal cancer, the fears and preparations
- Getting back to ordinary life
