Product Description
Anyone who's coping with cancer needs accurate, and sympathetic information on all the issues - practical, medical and emotional. For men it can be difficult to find this information or to ask for it. This book provides clear non-technical information about the cancers men get, how they progress and the kind of treatments you're likely to be offered. There is advice about talking to doctors, getting through daily life after the diagnosis, plus financial and other practical matters. Special issues for men, from fertility to coping at work, are addressed in a down-to-earth, realistic way.
About the Author
Helen Beare worked for a form of chartered accountants in London, before joining her partner, Neil Priddy in his own accountancy form in 1991. Neil was diagnosed with cancer and died 18 months later. This is the book they wished they's had at the time.
