Synopsis
When a loved one is diagnosed with cancer, it is often difficult to know what to do. Those who want to help can sometimes make matters worse. Written in a frank conversational manner, this book offers readers specific advice on what to do for a friend or loved one in need, such as offer to do the weekly grocery shopping, pick up the kids from school or bring them to practice, choose to be a chemobuddy, and keep up with bills and other important deadlines.
This stressful and uncertain time is difficult for the patient's family and friends. How Can I Help? provides the support and guidance everyone needs to make this time easier.

Synopsis
Even though the subject is serious, the book is written in a conversational and humorous style. This is the book a friend needs when a friend is going through cancer.What people don't realize is that there are numerous ways they can help - they don't have to do it all. They can do the food shopping. They can pick up the kids from school on chemo days. They can sit in the room during the MRI. They can mail the bills.Sometimes the right thing is not giving others the play-by-play of the treatment, or not avoiding the friend, or not always talking about the other people you know with cancer.
