There are many books on cancer, but none so hopeful and useful as Vickie Girard’s. The result of more than eight years of working closely with thousands of cancer patients and survivors, this is one cancer book that definitely has its feet on the ground. In the very first chapter, the author assures the reader to “immediately throw out any old cancer horror stories. Times, treatments, and diagnoses are all changing and improving as we speak.” The next 150 pages is a powerful, practical and inspiring guide that will empower millions of cancer patients to quickly understand the new “Patient Empowerment Medicine”, so they can better fight and better survive this disease. “Fear doesn’t defeat cancer,” reminds Girard, “empowered treatment defeats cancer.” Having survived one of the most deadly types of cancer, she writes with unusual clarity and authority and has taken her message to the floor of the United States Senate and to thousands of cancer patients and su! rvivors throughout the world. Her personal mission is to “empower and inspire people who have cancer and those who love them,” and her long-awaited book truly delivers on that promise.
In all my years of counseling cancer patients, I never found the one book that patients and their families were always requesting. I finally gave up looking and decided to write it. I come with vital information to share with cancer patients at any stage of your battle, regardless of the type of cancer you are dealing with. I write to tell you that, yes, I have been down the road and I’ve come back to tell you that, if you look closely, there are bread crumbs along the path to guide you in defeating your cancer. I want to assure you that even the worst of odds can be beaten and overcome---that the hope of defeating cancer now exists for us all. There is no such thing as “false hope.” The day my hope was fed is the day I began to get well. Even when it is not probable, it is still possible to win against this disease. I am living proof of this. Remember that cancer does not have a brain, a heart, or a spirit. It is you who has the brain, the ability to s! trategize and to plan the cancer’s demise. So keep your pilot light burning brightly, read this book, get ready to fight, and know that I’m with you all the way.
