Summary: Rock''m Sock'm Boxing Title Match
Comment: You didn't expect it but there you are (or someone you know) transported to center ring against your dreaded opponent, 'Cancer'! Luckily, there is someone in your corner who has experience and knowledge to guide you against this towering opponent. The book offers help from Round 1 thru Round 15. The book is realistic, compasionate, and practical. The Buchholz's speak from the heart. They covers topics patients and familes need to know about; treatment options, alternative therapies, clinical trials, emotions, managed healthcare, family dynamics, etc. There are short narratives about real people to bring out important points and pitfalls.
It is hard to give a book of this type 5-Stars because so much of what makes the book a success goes on within the patient or those that relate to the patient. The book itself is a guide, it doesn't give you "The Answer".

Summary: Offering hope, meaning for lives of cancer patients
Comment: Offering hope, meaning for lives of cancer patients
"LIVE LONGER, LIVE LARGER: A Holistic Approach For Cancer Patients and Families" offers a compassionate approach to cancer patient care that focuses on the whole person, not just the disease. Through their practice, this husband and wife work with each patient to construct a strategy for dealing with life-threatening illness. Reading this book is like having an unhurried consultation with them.
" Live Longer," outlines the strategy as a plan to extend life beyond its current bounds, and aims not only to treat the individual's malady, but also to heighten a patient's quality of life and engender a greater depth of meaning.
For those who have chosen-and Drs. Buchholz assert that there is always choice-to receive a particular treatment for cancer, "Live Longer" provides instruction on how to maintain a willingness to take one step after another even when it is difficult. This includes guidance on the appropriate application of hope, living with uncertainty, coping with changes in body image, and managing one's modes of energy so as to avoid fatigue.
"Live Longer" offers people with cancer a philosophy of how to live their lives fully.

Summary: Not just for cancer patients
Comment: Something to think about is an exceptional book that has just come out by Drs. Bill and Susie Buchholz, Living Longer, Living Larger. While directed to cancer patients and their families because he is an oncologist, it is well suited to anyone facing life crises that can shorten life. Dealing with fear, medical jargon, and what it means to live a larger life, it meets the reader wherever they are in dealing with a life changing medical
event - diagnosis, choosing treatment, during treatment, remission, recurrence, or endgame.
