After Cancer

This book is just brilliant, it explains in plain English all about treatment, it tells you what to expect during & afterwards, it is the most honest down to earth, sometimes very witty, most practical thing I have read throughout my illness & recovery. Every Cancer patient should be given this book as they leave the hospital door, it would sure cut down on patients worrying & on doctors time. Thank You.

I purchased two of these books, one for my mother and one for myself as my mother had recently been through a cancer operation and radiation therapy and was given an initial good prognosis going ahead. Her cancer counsellor recommended the book for her to read. My mother has found the book very helpful in helping her dealing with moving ahead after a life threatening experience. I have found the book helpful in trying to know how to act, what to do and say to assist my mother during her ordeal. It is a very worthwhile book.

Everyone with cancer or loved ones with cancer must read this excellent book! It answers all those thousands of questions you have about what life is like after cancer!

I found it very helpful to have a resource such as this book by Wendy Harpham when I finished my cancer treatments. The book helped me understand what I was feeling and why. I am now 3 years out and have just finished rereading the book. It has helped me, again, in my "new life" after cancer. I found that the book accurately explained the emotions I had been confronting. I highly recommend the book and believe that her book is a must read for any cancer survivor who has finished treatment, especially if you have just completed treatment, but even if it was years ago.

I believe that only cancer survivors can make a pertinent review this book.I strongly recommend it to anyone who is a cancer survivor, or anybody who wants to try to understand a friend or relative who has had cancer.The author, Wendy Harpham, is a cancer survivor. She is also a medical doctor. She writes from both perspectives. This makes her book not only informative, but also full of empathy. It made me cry. It made me laugh. It made me realize that there is "a life after cancer" and that, as Wendy suggests, I can "make it a good one."
