Críticas

"A must read for individuals and family members who are touched by cancer. It will be an eye opener for healthcare providers, such as nurses, doctors and allied professionals." -- Jame Abraham, M.D. "FACP Bonnie Wells Wilson Distinguished Professor and Eminent Scholar Chief, Section of Hematology-Oncology Medical Director, Mary Babb Randolph Cancer Center West Virginia University"

"Kevin wrote this book to help couples cope with the emotional side of this dreaded disease called cancer. But men take heed. Read this book and learn that when cancer comes to you, your wife, or a family member, it is okay to pray, weep, and most important of all, seek help from others. This book will make a difference in your life." -- Dick Vitale "ESPN/College Basketball Announcer"

"Kevin Murphy shares a very personal, intimate story of an evil disease that mercilessly stalks not just the body of a loved one but invades and threatens everyone close by. Even the best relationships are tested, and some do not survive. He turns his own painful experience into deeply faith-based, inspirational lessons learned." -- Judith G. Clabes "Editor and Publisher KyForward.com, former President and CEO, Scripps Howard Foundation"

Reseña del editor

Kevin Murphy's searing and devastatingly honest story, Surviving Cancer after Surviving Cancer, offers a unique perspective on this all too common phenomenon, when cancer (or any life-threatening illness) erodes the foundation of a once happy, thriving relationship. It offers the hard won wisdom of a husband who stood by his cancer stricken wife as she endured immense physical and emotional suffering, and beat the cancer that threatened her life and their unborn child, only to succumb to a painful divorce less than a decade later. Part memoir, part self-help primer, Surviving Cancer after Surviving Cancer is a wakeup call to couples and families whose lives have been decimated by disease. It seeks to bridge the emotional gap that too often isolates citizens of sickness from their spouses, families, and friends.
