While many improved methods now exist for treating and curing cancer, the disease is still an ordeal for those affected by it. Once the tsunami of the announced diagnosis has passed, many people understandably feel anxiety, often accompanied by an overwhelming sense of loneliness and the feeling that they are no longer an individual, but simply another cancer patient. Meanwhile, their loved ones aren’t sure how to properly care for them or come alongside them to walk through the hardship. What can we do to maximize our abilities to fight the enemy? How can both patients and their loved ones find ways to weather the storm?

Dr. Christelle Besnard-Charvet and Frédérique Dasso help us better understand cancer by making it less alarming, lifting taboos, and using plain, honest language about everything that might be involved in the process physiologically and psychologically, as well as in the marital, familial, and professional realms. They unravel the care pathway—the conventional treatments and forms of supportive care—and sweep away the complicated array of possibilities in order to not leave patients or loved ones alone with the questions they don’t dare ask the oncologist. This unique book seeks to offer a wealth of options and resources for cancer patients, as well as those who come alongside them on their journey,  including family, friends, and carers.
