Review

The Cancer Journey - what a breath of fresh air! --Carolyn Jamieson, GP Practise Nurse

"An excellent book to read" --The Telegraph

"I really enjoyed The Cancer Journey. In particular the chapter "What Family and Friends Can Do To Help" is excellent. I like the idea of Round Robin e-mails as well; this saves hours and hours of repeat explanations."
--Eleanor Moskovic FRCP FRCR, Consultant Radiologist Eleanor Moskovic FRCP FRCR, Consultant Radiologist Eleanor Moskovic FRCP FRCR, Consultant Radiologist

5.0 out of 5 stars Everyone should read this book!!! 3 Nov 2011
By jk
Format:Paperback
This is a brilliant read even for someone like me who doesnt have cancer but who wanted to find out as much information as possible, to try to help someone close to me who is fighting cancer. Information is power and this book is full of so many excellent tips, links to other credible websites and go-to books and in general ive had a wake-up call to how im living my life because of what ive read in this book! Honestly, this book has given me alot of things to think about and a real insight into all aspects of the journey someone has to go through fighting cancer. There is something in this book for everyone and i thoroughly recommend it!

Having met Polly Noble I was most keen to follow up by reading the book and wasnt disappointed.

Its clearly written, with no jargon, offers some pointed questions and answers around how to react to other people's reactions and some great receipes later in the book. buy it, its a must.
