Synopsis
Determined to fill the gap in post-treatment information for breast cancer patients, Dr. Marisa Weiss, in collaboration with her mother Ellen, has compiled a vast yet accessible, encouraging, and informed compendium of information collected and presented in a very logical and informative way. Topics include: beginning treatment after treatment, why and how to build a support group, specific therapies (e.g., Tamoxifen), what to expect (fatigue, loss of energy, hair loss and weight gain), a thorough section on intimacy and related issues, honest and forthright discussions of sadness and depression, and answers to a questions about childbearing and diet. A standout chapter is the one on the issues of employment, insurance, and wills. LIVING BEYOND BREAST CANCER is like having a doctor in front of you--but what doctor would give you hours and hours of consultation, and be there when you want to ask again?
