Thoroughly updated to incorporate the sweeping changes in medical insurance and employment laws, "Can Survive" focuses squarely on the needs of recovered cancer patients. Written by a cancer survivor, this groundbreaking book is a complete resource guide designed to help with problems commonly encountered after cancer treatment, from fear of remission to job and insurance discrimination to altered relationships and long-term physical effects from chemotherapy and radiation. Interweaving stories and tips from survivors with advice from doctors, oncology nurses, psychologists, and social workers, "Can Survive" is both reassuring and pragmatically useful.
