Customer Reviews

Excellent!

Not only is this a great book to give support and affirmation to those post-cancer survival, but it's also a realistic wake-up call for those that think they can go back to any self-destructive ways. Easy to read and recommended to ANYONE that has been diagnosed. Time to start anew!

The Cancer Survivor's Guide

The Cancer Survivor's Guide is an outstanding resource for patients, family members and friends who want to understand "what next?" I have used this book in a survivorship support group and the group members unanimously have agreed that Drs. Feuerstein and Findley have provided a thoughtful and practical guide for moving past and on to a healthier future.

Useful tool for Survivors and Clinicians

This book, co-authored by a cancer survivor, is an extremely useful tool to help guide survivors (or clinicians working with survivors) through the months and years following a cancer diagnosis. I have used this book as the guideline for a cancer survivorship therapy group and it has been received very well by the group members. One survivor stated that this book "provids the how-to steps" for moving on after cancer. Step-by-step, practical tips make this book a welcome addition to the body of cancer surivorship work.
