This book offers honest advice from patients on how best to support loved ones who are going through cancer.
Coming alongside someone with cancer is never a perfect process—like the disease itself, it can be unpredictable, messy, and intimidating. This valuable resource features contributions from thirty-six current or former cancer patients who share candid and heartfelt insights on how you can best be there for your loved one in their time of need, including…
- understanding the power of simply showing up
- giving yourself and your loved one extra grace
- remembering that no two cancer journeys look the same
- digging deeper than simply asking, “How are you doing?”
- avoiding clichés and empty platitudes
Loving Someone with Cancer will encourage and equip you to support, hold space, grieve, and love with greater compassion, knowledge, confidence, and creativity.
