Looking Good Was Never My Problem: Steps for Living With Metastatic Cancers or Other Chronic Illnesses

Over the past five years. . . I see the chemotherapy nurses once a month for treatments; annual bone scans show progression of the metastatic cancer; and I have come to view my metastatic breast cancer as a chronic disease. I am not dying from cancer, I am living with it. The diagnosis of a chronic illness, like multiple sclerosis, fibromyalgia, or cancer, can be devastating. Accepting the diagnosis is just the first step. The patient with a chronic illness must then learn to live with it. With simple steps for owning your illness, healing yourself, and living your life, Looking Good Was Never My Problem, guides the reader along the author's own path for managing living with chronic illness.Stahl, Ellen is the author of 'Looking Good Was Never My Problem: Steps for Living With Metastatic Cancers or Other Chronic Illnesses' with ISBN 9781420834451 and ISBN 1420834452.
