Description: "When a loved one is diagnosed with cancer, it is often difficult to know what to do. Those who want to help can sometimes make matters worse. Written in a frank conversational manner, this book offers readers specific advice on what to do for a friend or loved one in need, such as offer to do the weekly grocery shopping, pick up the kids from school or bring them to practice, choose to be a chemobuddy, and keep up with bills and other important deadlines. This stressful and uncertain time is difficult for the patient's family and friends. This book provides the support and guidance everyone needs to make this time easier."--Publisher's website.
