A reson for hope

My wife has been battling brest cancer since 02 , we( she) loves this book , She has found the strenght to look at each day . Even when some news is hard to take . We have given out at lease 20 copy of this book to people she knows whom has had to go and hear those words from the Doc. That says YOU HAVE CANCER, and that there is more in life yet than defeat

Living with cancer

This is a superb book for anyone who has been diagnosed with cancer, and for their loved ones. It helps to put things in perspective, and to revive hope for those with the most troubling diagnoses. I would fully recommend it as a must read. It is a very real kind of book, no sweeping grandiose promises for automatic healing, just well researched encouraging statistics, and wise advise on getting things in order and making the most of life, regardless of the eventual outcome.

What a comfort this book is

As of today August 10 I am an 88 day cancer survivor. This book is a tremendous comfort and great book for both cancer victims and caregivers. Please read it. Charlie "I may have cancer, but cancer does NOT have me."
