Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thanks for the Mammaries is an honest recount of author Kate Gale's journey with cancer. After being diagnosed at the young age of twenty-seven with breast cancer, she fought a hard, uphill battle, stared it in the eye, and won. Life was getting back to normal when tragedy struck Kate's young family again, when her husband was diagnosed with renal cancer five years later. What followed was the biggest curveball that Kate had been handed to date when roles were reversed, and she was sitting on the other side of a cancer diagnosis. It opened her eyes to life, what was important, who was important, and which direction she wanted to go in. Kate had now seen both sides of the disease, from two different perspectives, and knew that she had to break down the barriers that surrounded cancer. Her positive, inspiring, and honest attitude towards her battles are not only refreshing, but something that will leave you wondering what is important to you. Kate shows you how dreaming big, giving back, and having a never give up kind of attitude can turn a negative into a positive whilst continuing to smile.

Book excerpt: This book is me – talking to you. It’s not grammatically correct – I fragment a lot. It probably has some errors – I’m not perfect and neither is this book. It certainly is not politically correct and may even offend some people. I tell it like it is, as I have always done. You rarely have to wonder where I stand on something – I have an opinion on almost everything. I have written this in my style – like I’m sitting next to you in the same room telling you my story. I was diagnosed with Stage III cancer in November, 2008. I experienced a short period of remission until my Stage IV – terminal diagnosis in February, 2010. This book covers the period of my initial diagnosis to where I am now in May, 2010. Cancer is a dirty word! I have accepted that I will probably die from cancer. I have not accepted that my life is over. This book is intended as a gift. A gift from me to the reader. I’m not telling anyone how to do this or that they should handle it the way I am approaching it. It’s just my story of how I am dealing with it and attempting to turn devastation into opportunity. Every dollar we bring in with the sale of this book will go towards my dream project – My Sister’s Place, Too – a transitional housing program for women and children who have made the decision to leave their abusive situations and start a new life. There is a chapter devoted to this project. You can help me achieve my dream by purchasing this book for yourself or better yet as a thoughtful gift for anyone on the cancer journey.

Book excerpt: When you or someone you love is diagnosed with cancer it feels like your whole world is falling apart. Not knowing what will happen next is terrifying, and that is the main reason I wrote this book, hoping that my experience could help others. The first title of this book was, "My body is weak but my mind is strong", starting out as a story about my personal battle with cancer, and that was the mantra I used to hype myself up before my final chemotherapy session. Unfortunately, someone close to me was also diagnosed with cancer before I could finish that story, so I went through the process of becoming a cancer caregiver. Thus the new title for this book was born, "My Battles with Cancer", reflecting my journey as as both a cancer patient and caregiver. All throughout the writing and editing process there was a fire burning in my mind, pushing me to keep chipping away every day, and telling me to have faith in the idea that eventually it would all come together. During my hospital visits and everywhere else I went, I took notes and churned out ideas in the back of my mind, as I continued to ponder the greater questions from my patient and caregiver journey with this book in mind. Now, exactly two years to the day since my last cancer treatment I am publishing this book, ready to share with the world my journey, and ready to move on to some new and exciting adventures. It is my great pleasure to share with you now some of the high and low points I went through in my journey as a cancer patient and caregiver. My hope is that by sharing my stories and observations along the way, it may help other people with their learning curve. Good luck with your battles, Cheds

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Me and My Shadow – Memoirs of a Cancer Survivor is a brutally honest account of one teenager’s struggle to understand and deal with the most feared diagnosis known to society: cancer. At 18 years of age, John Walker Pattison was thrust onto a roller coaster ride of emotional turbulence – his innocence cruelly stripped from him; his fate woven into the tapestry of life. After years of failed chemotherapy and radiotherapy treatments that ravaged his physical frame and almost destroyed his psychological stability – his parents were told that he would not survive. Yet, today, he is one of the longest surviving cancer patients in the UK. Eight years after his unexpected recovery, the news that all parents fear, his daughter is diagnosed with terminal leukaemia. Yet like her father, she too would defy the odds and go on to become an international swimmer. Pattison turned his life full circle and became a cancer nurse specialist at the same hospital that made his diagnosis decades earlier. He prescribes chemotherapy and cares for individuals with the same cancers experienced by both him and his daughter. Throughout his journey, Pattison’s inspirations were the space rock legends, Hawkwind. He would get to play on stage with his heroes at the Donnington Festival in 2007. More significantly, he found solace throughout his cancer journey in the history and spirituality of the Lakota Sioux Nation. In 2018, he would spend time on Pine Ridge Indian Reservation with the indigenous people of South Dakota. The same people who, unknowingly, supported him through life's greatest challenge: cancer.

Download or read book Nothing Can Scare Me Now written by Juliane Cortino and published by Jcross. This book was released on 2011-07 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Nothing Can Scare Me Now: Managing Breast Cancer So It Doesn't Manage You" will help breast cancer patients, their families, and friends manage the experience from diagnosis to life after cancer. The first part of the book goes from diagnosis through cancer treatments. How to manage surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation are components of this first half. Part II deals with everyone's common fear, recurrence. This half, "Will My Cancer Come Back?" talks about good nutrition, risk factors for breast cancer, and symptoms of recurrence. When Juliane Cortino was diagnosed with breast cancer, she was surprised at the number of women who contacted her. Neighbors, women in her book club, friends of friends, all called to share their experiences. They were full of knowledge. They asked how they could help. She'd become a member of a sisterhood she'd never aspired to join. But she turned to these women, this secret underground network, time and again for support. In "Nothing Can Scare Me Now: Managing Breast Cancer So It Doesn't Manage You," Juliane shines a spotlight on this underground collective. She's elevated the important information that was passed on to her and augmented it with information from doctors she's interviewed and her own extensive research. She hopes to share it all with you. Juliane believes "Nothing Can Scare Me Now" provides a piece missing from the available breast cancer literature. When she searched for a book that would tell her what to expect and how things worked, she found medical books and, primarily, compilations of survivors' stories with a positive spin. Her book is an informational memoir offering an honest from-a-woman's-heart perspective. A portion of the proceeds from the book will be donated to cancer research.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These reflections on my terminal cancer have only one purpose in mind: to bring together those who would heal. and those who would be healed. And to preserve protect and prolong life, hold it sacred against all impediments and anyone who would have it otherwise. They mirror the human predicament reflected in a single heart, are written with no intent to harm, and hold everybody harmless in an effort to save lives. Some of the names have been altered to protect the innocent, while others have been used with their permission. Everything written and implied explicitly. or implicitly, is solely the perception of the author. The story of my life struggling with the cancer in me and the cancer out there' as I call it, that would have had me dead before my time, is an odyssey that allows one to look into oneself. The fragility and insouciance of human nature is terrifying, disheartening and inconceivable at times, but nonetheless allows one to transcend it if one has the courage and tenacity to survive against all odds. That's what this story is all about. I dedicate this book to all those who would unstintingly heal, knowing what cannot be known. hold life sacred and seek this truth so as to transcend themselves and act with compassion. humility and unerring faith, to help others survive.

Book excerpt: As we look around us, we see illness and disease everywhere. Whether it be heart disease, auto-immune disease, breast cancer, prostate cancer, pancreatic cancer, a tumor, or a silent illness such as IBS, Crohn's disease, diabetes, asthma, chronic fatigue, depression, or something as simple as the aging process, we all have or know someone that has a body that is in an "imbalanced" state and suffering. "My Cancer, My Cure," is my journey to optimal health after being diagnosed with Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia, a terminal blood cancer in 2009. I went through all the same emotions most cancer patients go through. The denial, the hate, the pity and the depression. I not only was sick and weak, I was in a state of mind that I felt I almost couldn't get out of. Then just before Christmas that year, I remember being wrapped in a blanket, sitting by the fire, trying to keep my bones warm thinking, this is just not right. How could the Lord want this for me? I saw the scared look in my children's eyes as they saw me melting away to just skin and bones. How could I do that to them or to my husband? They didn't deserve that. They had been nothing but supportive through all my illness and they didn't deserve to have to bury me. I didn't deserve that. I wasn't a bad person. I spent my whole life trying to do for others, but maybe that was the point. I needed to fix what was broken "my spirit" so I could continue to help others. With a diagnosis of no hope, I had forgotten what was really important in life. I was letting the word "cancer" take over my very being. I had forgotten who I was and I was letting my spirit die. I was "Mindy," I was a "fighter," I was not a "disease." So I got on my computer and started reading everything I could find about this cancer of mine. I decided to write this book entitled, "My Cancer, My Cure" because the information I have found on this journey of mine applies to everyone. It's the information and research that I have found and tested on my

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cancer diagnosis and treatment can make a person feel both frightened and powerless; Anna Fitch Courie takes a different approach: Join her as she embarks on an epic journey with God after finding out she has cancer. Cancer Girl wraps herself in a cape of grace, freely sharing her experiences of diagnosis, traversing the medical system, finding faith in God again, and learning to live with cancer. Cancer Girl learns that there is no stronger “magic word” than “Trust God.” Part journal, part sage advice, Fitch Courie weaves her experience as a nurse throughout her story. Using her real-time blog posts during the course of diagnosis, treatment, and living with the disease, Fitch Courie covers the cycle of grief and relearning a new norm, offering assurance to others that they are not alone. Each chapter opens with Scripture that reflects the theme of the day. Section 1 covers early stages of the journey; Section 2 offers learnings from the experience; and Section 3 offers questions for the individual to reflect on their own illness and how they felt. Readers are encouraged to explore their thoughts, feelings, and experiences with their illness in order to contribute to overall healing.

Download or read book everything you hoped you’d never need to know about colorectal cancer written by Anisha Patel and published by Teach Yourself. This book was released on 2023-09-05 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 1 in 15 men. 1 in 18 women. Every year in the UK 43,000 people are newly diagnosed with colorectal cancer. Dr Anisha Patel is one of them. Young, fit, and married to a consultant gastroenterologist and bowel cancer screening specialist, in 2018 she was diagnosed with Stage 3 colorectal cancer. Despite being a family doctor, Anisha had no idea what would come next. With the benefit of hindsight, and after first-hand experience, she understands now that the diagnosis is just the beginning, that treatment can be physically and mentally overwhelming, and that the hard work really starts when the treatment ends. Drawing on her own experience and her medical expertise, as well as that of specialists in the field, Anisha's book is an essential companion for anyone facing a cancer diagnosis. She outlines what to expect at each stage, from diagnosis, through treatment and into the 'new normal' that awaits, with practical advice and emotional guidance for every step of the way. Hers is not the only voice; here you will find a chorus of individuals who share their own lived experiences of colorectal cancer and its aftermath, in the hope that they, too, can navigate you through the eye of the cancer storm, to thrive in the life beyond. Powerful and personal, this is a life-saving book for a life-changing diagnosis, and a testament to human resilience and the enduring power of hope.

The book spans the course of 11 years, starting from my first cancer diagnosis in 2010 to the present day. My life was completely turned upside down as I was thrust into a new world of surgery, radiation, chemotherapy, doctors/nurses, and cancer checks. Then, I had to go through it all over again each and every time cancer decided to make battles into wars. Through it all, I found a new purpose in life, helping others to see the light at the end of their own proverbial cancer tunnels and come out to the other side.
