I had already been going through the process of getting a tumor partial removed in hospital and was proceeding with the "next steps". Nothing was easy in the year of 2020 with covid being the main pain. With that cause many many reschedulings and delays to my process at least. This book was extremely helpful my only wish was that I had gotten it sooner or recommended to me sooner. It was an odd feeling of knowing exactly about what was going on or being explained because I was currently or had already gone through it. But again the book was dead on with what I was doing it how I was feeling / thinking. So the book is quite good at explaining what's going on, or explaining what's going on within your body. So I highly recommend it to someone who is just about to go through all of this. Like I said I wish my doctor had recommended it about 3 months earlier in my case. But it was extremely helpful none the less. And I think is a good read for family also if they have a loved one going through it as well. I had about 3 family members looking to read it after I had. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ straightforward in for the typical cases *by A***S on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 14, 2013* I suppose because my partner's case was a GBM there are more intricate issues that are not brought up in this book, but overall, it's like a dictionary of terminology for the most part.I would like to have seen the topic of the SHUNT in there, an explanation on how if at all, it effects the daily life of the patient. My partner's shunt surgery more than likely caused his meningitis, also a topic not brought up as a risk for someone who might have multiple surgeries. 37 days in the hospital, I saw 3 other shunt patients, so I know it's common enough to address. The book doesn't even define a shunt.Also, there isn't much to read about clinical trials. It's mentioned, but not really defined per tumor type.Lastly, cognitive changes is common, if not expected in every patient. How to understand and cope with those changes could be a great topic to address as well. Cognitive gets about a page in the book.Overally, it describes the types of cancer well (and is less scary than the online statistics), and radiation is clearly defined. Everything else is like a small blurb.It's worth the buy as a go-to guide, but don't expect to have all your answers here. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great info! *by K***R on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on August 4, 2013* Very helpful information in understanding my own brain tumor and navigating life with it! It's a comprehensive resource in three parts -- Part 1 "Where Do I Begin?" includes an Introduction section and chapters in understanding brain tumors, getting a diagnosis, getting help you need, understanding your prognosis,and understanding radiation therapy considerations. Part 2 "How Do I Deal With This?" includes information on Lifestyle Management, Symptom Management (The Big Picture), Caregiver care during your Treatment, future planning and managing personal affairs, trusts, power of attorneys, conservatorship, wills, etc. Part 3 "What Can I . . . Do About It?" covers issues related to different types of tumors, i.e., benign, primary, and metastatic brain tumors. Also included is a Glossary, a guide to drugs prescribed for brain tumors, and short bios of the various authors and contributors to the book.
