Abstract

What if you could use cancer to evolve more fully into love? David Maginley has been there --- four times. His cancer led to a near-death experience and a career helping thousands face this disease. Through profound storytelling, David brings you to the core of the cancer journey to discover the hero within. You will learn how to :

-- Turn the mind into an ally as you grapple with uncertainty.

-- Explore spirituality through your love rather than your belief.

-- Not only go through cancer, but grow through cancer. - Cover

Abstract

A guide for men whose wives or girlfriends have been diagnosed with breast cancer. Helps readers deal with the diagnosis, addressing men's stereotypical reactions (usually saying little, followed by overbearing urges to fix the problem) and advises them how to behave (ask questions and, more importantly, listen). Also examines the various treatments and suggests ways for readers to find sexual intimacy after mastectomy.
