Things I Wish I’d Known: Cancer Caregivers Speak Out

Nearly three-quarters of American households will find themselves caring for a cancer patient at one point in their lives. Based on formal interviews with nonprofessional caregivers, this book is the first to capture their thoughts, feelings, and insights on a large scale. Practical lessons drawn from their experiences are intermingled with their own words to forge a compelling narrative intended to help both patients and their family caregivers to understand and cope with the full range of issues they can anticipate as they engage with this life-threatening illness.
