Older Survivors of Cancer

Approximately 53% of cancer patients are diagnosed when 65 years or older, yet no attempt to explore the experience of older cancer survivors has been made. This thoughtful, respectful book seeks to reduce older cancer patients' and survivors' feeling of aloneness and of not being understood by sharing narratives of other older cancer survivors' experiences.

Aproximativ 53% dintre pacientii cu cancer sunt diagnosticati la 65 de ani sau mai mult, dar nu s-a facut nicio incercare de a explora experienta supravietuitorilor in varsta de cancer. Aceasta carte atenta si respectuoasa incearca sa reduca sentimentul de singuratate al pacientilor in varsta de cancer si al supravietuitorilor si de a nu fi inteles prin schimbul de naratiuni ale experientelor altor supravietuitori ai cancerului in varsta.
