The Cancer Survivor Handbook: Your Guide to Building a Life After Cancer

Description

The Institute of Medicine notes that patients diagnosed with cancer have an estimated 64% chance of surviving five years, up from 50% three decades ago. And most of them have lingering symptoms, both physical and emotional. The Cancer Survivor Handbook is a companion and guide for those millions of individuals who are finally done with treatments but are still on the journey to wholeness.
