CUSTOMER REVIEWS (Average Customer Rating: 5.0 based on 1 review)

A must-read for all cancer patients  
I recommend this book to all cancer patients. If the shock of a cancer diagnosis doesn't reak havoc on your sex life, the treatments probably will. This book offers lots of suggestions for maintaining and/or improving intimacy and sex during and after cancer.
