Anotace knihy

At age 42, Barbara L. Gordon was diagnosed with Stage II breast cancer. Two years later, it appeared that the cancer had metastasized. Together with her oncologist and other experts, she has written the book that she wished she had as she faced late-stage breast cancer and the prospect of dying from the disease. Filled with information and advice, and designed to enable informed decisions and improved quality of life, this comprehensive guide gathers in one place authoritative medical information about recurrence and late-stage breast cancer, and it addresses the practical, emotional, and interpersonal aspects of death and dying. This indispensable guide will aid those who have late-stage or recurring breast cancer and the healthcare professionals, loved ones, and others seeking to help and comfort them. It provides information about: types of recurrence, their symptoms, and ways of minimizing the chances of a recurrence; diagnostic tests, potential surgeries, and treatments to manage late-stage cancer; getting the best care, evaluating complementary therapies, and alleviating pain and depression; cessation of treatment and what one may experience as the disease progresses; and, end-of-life issues including dealing with financial matters and legal documents, communicating with loved ones and hospice services, and planning memorial services. "Breast Cancer Recurrence and Advanced Disease" includes a glossary of medical terms, appendices on nutrition and integrative health centres, and links to current websites addressing matters such as clinical trials, patients' rights, and covering medical expenses.
