And she explains how that improvement can take place. A really valuable guide at a terrible time.

It is so refreshing to hear from someone willing to be honest and vulnerable about living with someone you love who has prostate cancer. Every Urologist and Oncologist who treats this disease should read it and refer it to their patients!
