 About The Book
In Dancing with the Diagnosis, Ms. Waters pairs her cancer experience with her expertise as a university instructor, and encourages readers to take an active part of their healing process through the use of effective, positive communication.
This practical, colorful guide is an essential take-along companion for those facing a life-threatening disease and their caregivers. Short, informative chapters filled with activities and inspiration make this a particularly applicable and empowering read.
Includes a foreword by Dr. Robert H. Schuller.
Who Should Read DANCING WITH THE DIAGNOSIS?
- Those who are facing a diagnosis that causes them to be confronted with a myriad of new people, from doctors and nurses to familiar friends who suddenly are thrust into a new role.
- Friends and family of those who've just begun their dance.
- Truly for anyone not prone to communicating effectively in the first place and much less inclined when compromised by illness
