Found this book in a chemo room. Wanted one of my own. 
2 1/2 yrs after an advanced colon cancer diagnosis, I'm still under chemo treatment and doing excellently.:) I've learned a ton! I recently found this book in the "chemo room." It seems to be "talkin' my language." I plan to buy one for myself and for others that I find myself encouraging along the way.

A Terrific Guide
Finding this book was such a relief! It is difficult to find quality reading material that deals with this subject, especially in such a comforting, and easy-to-understand format. As a cancer survivor, and somebody who has been through many of the things described in this book, I would highly recommend it to everyone diagnosed with Colorectal Cancer. This book will walk you through the ordeal beginning at day one.

Advance look at Colorectal Cancer Survival Guide
I was fortunate enough to get my hands on Dr. Lange's newest book
analzing Colorectal Cancer. I wanted to get it for a dear friend whose sister is battling the disease as we speak. Not only did I read the book for a greater understanding of the medical condition, I gave it to my friend in hopes it would help his sister.
One of the important points he, my friend, was able to glean from the book, is his role in helping her navigate the disease.
Her fear of the unknown, as well as the dire prognosis she has been given, has rendered her a single mother, unable to cope with her three children and her demanding life. This book faces the problem head on, with practical approaches for her family, as caregivers.
Lastly, the stories of recovery, and life after the disease, have have changed my friend's sister's outlook on her chances of surviving this dreaded cancer. that, in and of itself, makes the book a "must read" for those battling the colorectal cancer, as well as those helping the patient navigate the process.
