So you or someone close to you has been diagnosed with cancer. It’s terrifying. What is going to happen? What can you do to survive? In this ground breaking book, Elizabeth Gould details her own story as well as the stories of five cancer survivors. No diets or miracle cures but a practical step by step approach to describing the emotional and physical journey through cancer into remission. In this book you will learn: • Mental tools and techniques to cope with each stage of cancer • How your body will change during treatment and how to cope with those changes • The best ways to emotionally support a cancer patient; and • How the cancer journey can transform your life. This is a book of hope, survival and how to discover your own path through an enormous physical and mental challenge. Elizabeth Gould had barely recovered from being the victim of a major crime during which she had to defend her two small children, when she was diagnosed with breast cancer. Drawing on her previous experience of surviving in tough situations, Elizabeth pulled through but was concerned at the lack of material about ‘the things that no-one will tell you’. Using her experience as a writer as well as a survivor, Elizabeth interviewed five other survivors all with different cancers and backgrounds to distill the ‘secrets’ to surviving cancer to complete her book ‘Secrets of Cancer Survivors’.
