How to Survive Cancer: A Plain Language Guide to Self-Coping
By: Ismail Kazem, MD, FACR, FASTRO
How to Survive Cancer is meant to be a roadmap in plain language to aid those concerned about their or a loved one's cancer diagnosis so they may be able to confront it on a personal level. Despite all of the scientific and technological achievements made in combating cancer, taboo and phobia still persist in creating a barrier to seeking earlier help and coping successfully.
Dr. Kazem delicately and thoughtfully explains the early steps of a diagnosis, from screenings to testing all the ways to possible remission and the delicate process of end-of-life care decision making. For anyone struggling with this often misunderstood and feared territory, Dr. Kazem will guide you on a path to accepting your diagnosis and living your life to the fullest during and after treatment.
