Summary: A Must Have For Anyone With Cancer
Review: A Must Have For Anyone With Cancer!!!!!!!!! I am a Stage IV breast cancer survivor. This workbook would have made a tremendous difference during my treatment and subsequent stem cell transplant. In this workbook is everything you need to stay completely organized and on top of everything from scheduling of appointments and tests, to monitoring medications, pain management and emotional well-being. The book is filled with insights and warmth as well as humorous diversions. Ms. Willis cover cancer care from A to Z. This is truly a cancer WORKBOOK and I foresee millions of cancer patients taking theirs with them wherever they go. There are pages for journaling, tracking nutrition, keeping up with the latest clinical trials. Pages for questions to ask at each doctor visit, and a long and well-researched list of internet sites for up to date information on all cancers and related treatments.

Summary: A Valuable Aid!
Review: As a person working in healthcare and a cancer survivor, I found this book to be the best resource I've seen. We have ordered one for our library at our Gamma Knife Center and I feel that anyone newly diagnosed with cancer should have this wonderful workbook as they begin their journey. I wish I would have had it 8 years ago when I was diagnosed with inflammatory breast cancer.

Summary: The Gift of Information
Review: I bought the Cancer Patient's Workbook for myself when my colon cancer reoccured. It has been so valuable to me that now I give a copy to friends, family or aquaintances whenever they receive that dreadful diagnosis.

Summary: Excellent Resource
Review: I bought this book for my mother the week following her diagnosis of Stage 4 lung cancer. This book was a blessing in the early days of diagnosis. It offered hope and guidance. Joanie Willis provides excellent information on nutrition, diet, exercise and vitamins which doctors often don't address. We have used many of her suggestions and have found them helpful as we, as a family, battle this disease. Ms. Willis also provides hope which you need after receiving devastating news. I would recommend this book to not only patients, but family members. This is the first book I would recommend to family members after their loved one receives a diagnosis.

Review: The Cancer Patient's Workbook has one of the largest collections of cancer-related websites that I have seen in any health book. Mrs. Willis maintains a website, cancerpatientsworkbook.com that includes links to all of the websites found in The Cancer Patient's Workbook. The websites are laid out exactly like they are found on the pages in the book. It is just one more tool that makes using the workbook incredibly simple.

Summary: Fabulous Resource
Review: This book has been an invaluable resource to me as I navigate the maze of lung cancer material, treatment options, clinical trials, etc. Joanie has done a fabulous job of covering every topic, no matter how painful, from begining to end of this painful journey. Three of my family members also have the book so we can all refer to it prior to treatment and for questions that arise. I highly recommend the book.
