I went online to order "Nana, What is Cancer?" and I found two others that looked good. One is about how chemo can affect the brain - and what we can do to help regain our edge. The other is a cookbook for cancer treatment patients. In the comments about it, A Speech Pathologist commented how successful it has been with her patients suffering from cancer - and also when her father went through chemo, she said it not only gave suggestions on how to alter food to make them more appealing based upon the kinds of medicines and their effects that we experience. She said it is also full of useful nutritional tips. I've included the references and what I paid for them at Amazon.com

I ordered the Nana, What's Cancer? It is great to explain to young children.

It is published by the American Cancer Society.

Thanks for posting these. I like it when bc survivors tell about books that they have read or heard about.
