Healing Hope: Through and Beyond Cancer - Paperback

by Wendy S. Harpham (Author), Emma Mathes (Illustrator)

If you are facing a cancer-related challenge or loss, people tell you to have hope. How are you supposed to find that hope? What should you hope for? In this groundbreaking book, Wendy S. Harpham, MD, shares her hard-earned wisdom about finding and nourishing the best hopes for you. The innovative format of illustrated aphorisms with succinct supporting text make the ideas remarkably accessible and memorable. According to New York Times health columnist Jane Brody, "Healing Hope -- inspired and inspiring words to live by."

From Dr. Harpham's perspective as a longtime cancer survivor and leader in survivorship, she offers powerful insights and practical tips that encourage readers to think about hope in new ways. Patients and families are guided to specific hopes that help them obtain sound knowledge and take effective action. Since proper action increases patients' chance--their hope--of the best outcome, Healing Hope helps patients get good care and live as fully as possible today, tomorrow and every day.
