Hi all,
The Institute of Medicine has just released a report on long term survivors of childhood and adolescent cancers. It is available in book form or a pdf file. This URL will take you to the site where you can purchase either the book or pdf file. http://www.iom.edu/report.asp?id=14782
This report is intended for survivors of childhood cancer but I know how hard it is for those treated as adults to find information about late effects so some of you may want to take a look at this report. If anyone has questions please feel free to write to me directly. (zame@earthlink.net)
There is also an on-going discussion group for long term survivors at www.acor.org visit the ACOR site click on mailing lists and then join the LTS group.
