A Dietitian's Cancer Story: Information & Inspiration for Recovery & Healing from a 3-Time Cancer Survivor

Biographies & Memoirs

Swan Press

"This is the book I wish my own cancer center had had available to give me when I finally asked my doctor, 'What can I do to help myself?' When I received silence for an answer, I took charge of my own recovery (physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual) after chemotherapy was completed. The result is this concise guide book - both information and inspiration, which I hope will make every cancer patient's recovery from this disease smoother than mine own have been." Diana Dyer, MS, RD, a life-long cancer survivor, wrote the book A Dietitian's Cancer Story after her third cancer diagnosis, having survived neuroblastoma as an infant and breast cancers at ages 34 and 45. Although the author has undergone surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy with her 3 cancer diagnoses, the book gives the details of how she, as a Registered Dietitian, has changed her own diet after her most recent cancer diagnosis in order to optimize her chances for long-term survival. It also covers the various complementary medicine therapies she has now incorporated into her lifestyle, such as meditation, creative imagery, herbs, and Chi Kung exercises. The Spanish translation is newly available in 2000. A Dietitian's Cancer Story, first published in 1997, has already been read by cancer survivors in all 50 states in the USA and 21 other countries. Proceeds from the book's sales are donated to the Diana Dyer Endowment Fund at The American Institute for Cancer Research (AICR) in Washington, DC, to research nutrition strategies after a cancer diagnosis, either during treatment or recovery, to optimize chances for long-term survival.
