Cancervive, by Susan Nessim & Judith Ellis

Published in 1992, paperback.

When my copy of this book came in the mail I started browsing through the table of contents. Two hours later I was enthralled. I could see myself in this book and was ever so glad that I could. This book showed me that what I was feeling was normal, that I am not alone, and that the feelings will pass and I will come out stronger on the other side. It also tackles relevant issues like: what should I do about damaged friendships and when should I tell the person I'm dating I had cancer?

Chapters include: Returning to the Well World; Sizing Up the Emotional Aftermath; Moving Beyond the Fear of Recurrence; The Insurance Obstacle; When the Resume Includes Cancer, and more!
