The Cancer Survivor's Guide: Foods That Help You Fight Back
Sat, 09/11/2010 - 6:12pm — TraciInLAA lot of the same ideas about food as Anti-Cancer, but with recipes and practical tips for how to incorporate foods into your diet. I thought the practical aspect was an area where Anticancer was lacking, so this makes a good companion to it.
Anti-Cancer: A New Way of Life
Sat, 09/11/2010 - 5:52pm — TraciInLAThe one and only book my oncologist has ever recommended to me.
Your Brain After Chemo: A Practical Guide to Lifting the Fog and Getting Back Your Focus
Sat, 09/11/2010 - 5:49pm — TraciInLAAfter Cancer Treatment: Heal Faster, Better, Stronger
Sat, 09/11/2010 - 5:47pm — TraciInLAAuthor is a rehabilitation physician and breast cancer survivor -- talks more about physical than emotional recovery, so makes nice companion book to After Breast Cancer.
After Breast Cancer: A Common-Sense Guide to Life After Treatment
Sat, 09/11/2010 - 5:43pm — TraciInLAThe one book I would buy, if I could, for every woman finishing treatment. The author is an oncology social worker and two-time breast cancer survivor. I started it about a month before finishing treatment, and carried it around with me like Linus with his blankie.
No one tells you how difficult it's going to be, emotionally and physically, when you finish active treatment -- this book really helped.
Voices of Survivors
Tue, 08/31/2010 - 10:58pm — TwoTimeCancerChickThe “Voices of Survivors Foundation” is devoted to exploring what ‘Survivorship’ means to the individual ‘Survivor’, whether they are recently diagnosed, in-treatment or post-treatment, in a variety of documentary formats. Each ‘Survivor’ helps define what this means to not only themselves, but also gives insight to others who are on this journey as well, either as a ‘Survivor’ or a ‘Co-Survivor’.
The face of cancer is one that has been portrayed as that of only older people or children for so long, but that face is not reflective of whom cancer truly affects. It affects us all! We become a ‘Survivor’ when we first hear those three words: “You have cancer.”
At that moment, your ‘Survivorship’ begins and you are not alone. Each and every ‘voice’ shared can mean so much to so many and touch even more. Stand up, be heard!
I'm Too Young For This! Cancer Foundation - i[2]y
Tue, 08/31/2010 - 10:54pm — TwoTimeCancerChicki[2]y exists to ensure that every young adult affected by cancer is given access to the best age-appropriate support they are entitled to in order to get busy living at every stage of their survivorship.

Kidney Cancer Warriors Resource Blog

Additionally, on the blog we share a great deal of information regarding the medications, side effects, and possible remedies for those side effects. As well as excellent sites to find valuable information about kidney cancer, financial assistance, support, links to kidney cancer patients personal blogs, etc.
The Kidney Cancer Warriors also has a support group on facebook which can be found at the following link:
