5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent and also Greg Anderson's book The Cancer Conquerer, January 30, 1999

I was diagnosed with Ovarian Cancer Stage 3+ and given 6 months to live. That was five years ago. My daughter, a nurse, bought both of these books for me which I read with voracity. I also turned to prayer and positive thinking. I am still here, doing fine and trying to instill hope in others.

5.0 out of 5 stars This book paved the way for my recovery., September 26, 1999

By A Customer

I was diagnosed with breast cancer. I was devastated. A friend, a 10 year breast cancer survivor, brought this book to me. I wrapped it in a paper book cover because I didn't want anyone to know I had cancer. I read the book and it changed my life. I took most of the 50 suggestions to heart and I am a survivor. I highly recommend this book for all people who have a diagnisis of cancer.

5.0 out of 5 stars Guiding and comforting...When you first get the word..Cancer, January 15, 1998

By A Customer

My cancer happened so fast and before I knew it, I had a lung removed. After I came out of the hospital, I bought this book and it has really helped me in dealing with the stages of the disease. I highly recommend it to anyone who learns they have cancer and/or any friend, relative, spouse etc., of someone who does. It will help in their journey to survival. Buy this and read it as soon as you know of the cancer and read it again and set up the wellness journal.. It will help...I guarantee it...
