If you or your loved one are one of the 18 million people worldwide
diagnosed with cancer each year, you know exactly how overwhelming
and scary the journey is. In this valuable patient and caregiver
guide, Bill Potts - entrepreneur, business leader, IRONMAN
triathlete, and five-time cancer survivor - tells you everything
you need to know to take on this fight. With empathy and honesty,
he explains exactly what to expect, and shares lessons and
important tips you can put into action all the way: from diagnosis,
to treatment, to remission, to cure - and how to face setbacks on
your road to recovery. You'll learn how to advocate for yourself,
how to pick and manage your care team, and how to care for yourself
emotionally and mentally. You'll find out how to make your
treatment days more comfortable, manage side effects, and
understand test results. You'll also find important information on
diet, exercise, wellness, and staying active, as well as insights
on how treatment and disease affects your immune system. With
special sections for people wanting to support a loved one with
cancer, facing and making peace with death, and recalibrating your
priorities to get the most out of the life you have now, you'll
gain the knowledge and tools you need to manage this journey - from
someone who is walking the path alongside you.
