Opis

CANCER: A Coping Guide is written through the lens of men and women who have personally battled cancer, in language that everyone can understand. Its three sections provide practical advice for coping with virtually any form of cancer. The first section, "Big C, Little cs," explores the range of emotions experienced by someone coping with cancer treatment. It also covers the difficulties with interpersonal relationships during this stressful time. The second section, "Cancer Dos and Don'ts," is a guide to talking to someone fighting the disease. The author has learned that many people have no idea what to say to a loved one with this disease. Equally importantly, they have no idea what not to say. You'll find ten dos and don'ts to help with this. The final section is a humorous foray into what it means to be bald including Ten Reasons It's Good To Be Bald. "It's Good To Be Bald" is guaranteed to end your reading of CANCER: A Coping Guide with a smile. Elaine M. Decker is a writer who is also a cancer survivor. When she was diagnosed with breast cancer, she began keeping a journal of her own thoughts and experiences, along with those of others coping with many forms of cancer. Her retirement has afforded her the time to collect all of this into a book. Cancer: A Coping Guide has been twenty-two years in the making. Her writing has appeared in The New York Times, Marketing News and The Privacy Journal. Selections from her blog and book, Retirement Sparks, appear in her monthly column in the RI publication, Prime Time.
