Reader Reviews

Gary Hall

★★★★

I honestly thought I was going to have to become a hematologist overnight just to understand my own diagnosis. This guide brought me back down to earth. It explained what was happening in my body in plain language, and the symptom table in Chapter 3 was the first thing that made me feel like I wasn't crazy. It is not the most upbeat book, but it is honest and warm — and that is exactly what I needed.

Jonathan Baker

★★★★

As a caregiver, I have read so many dense, frightening articles that made me feel useless. This one actually helped me understand what my wife is going through — and it gave me words to use at her next appointment. I appreciated that it never once told me to just 'stay positive.' It gave me concrete questions to ask and made me feel like a partner in her care, not a bystander. Worth every page.
