About this title

Review

Battling cancer is a Herculean task that requires courage, fortitude, and many, many decisions. There are lots of experts in the field, but advice from one who went through it herself is invaluable. I wish this book had existed during my own battle. --- Fran Drescher, Actress, Cancer Survivor, Health Advocate, President of Cancer Schmancer

This is the book I wish I had for every patient diagnosed with cancer. It fills the void between the diagnoses and the journey onward. A great blueprint for how to cope with the journey from choosing safe personal care products to addressing all the changes that your skin and body will go through to managing side effects. - --Dr. Madeline Krauss, M.D.
