Two main goals prompted the creation of Survivorship A to Z. One is to provide comprehensive, in depth, information about all aspects of life affected by a diagnosis of a life changing condition. The other is to avoid duplication when a subject is well covered and we have nothing of substance to add.
When it comes to couples, the subject is well covered by American Cancer Society in its book: Couples Confronting Cancer: Keeping Your Relationship Strong by Joy L. Fincannon, R.N., M.S. and Katherine V. ABruss, Psy. D. You can order it by clicking here or by calling 800. 888.4741. If you prefer, you can order a used copy for less through such online sellers as Barnes and Noble
or Amazon
