Autologous Stem Cell Transplants: A Handbook for Patients

Summary: My sister had a stem cell transplant
Review: I was my sisters caregiver when she had a stem cell transplant for ovarian cancer and the family was given this book from the hospital to read. The book really did not go into enough depth on the reality of the transplant and what to expect from it for the patient and the family. My seventy five year old mother had trouble understanding it. I felt this book was "sugar coating" what really happens physically and emotionally to the patient, caregiver and family members.
