Self-Help Health
At age 36, Julie Silver was enjoying an exciting career
as a physician at the Harvard Medical School and a rewarding
personal life as a mother, wife, and award-winning writer.
But she had the sense that something was wrong. Two years
and multiple doctors later, she was diagnosed with the
breast cancer she had suspected all along and was catapulted
into the role of cancer patient. Like many cancer
patients who experience serious side effects from treatment,
Dr. Silver emerged from therapy feeling not better, but
exhausted and physically devastated. As she worked to heal
herself, she became determined to write a book to help
others recover after cancer treatment. Here Dr.
Silver shares her own cancer journey and offers a
step-by-step plan for physical healing, including exercise
and diet recommendations and instructions for fighting
fatigue, monitoring mood, and overcoming setbacks. Dr.
Silver's advice comes from the heart -- and from her
experience as both a cancer survivor and a doctor who has
spent her career helping people heal from serious illnesses
and injuries. No matter where they are in their own journey
with cancer, readers will find After Cancer Treatment a
personal, practical, and powerful guide to recovery.
