A Healing Gift Oct 02, 2006
By Susan Morton
I purchased two copies of Dr. Carter's book, one for each of two friends who were recently diagnosed with lung cancer. Both of these individuals told me that, even though it was not the only book that they received, it was by far the most helpful, compassionate, and the one they return to most often. One recipient told me that the accompanying audio CD is one of her best tools for getting through the day. This book is a wonderful gift of ammunition for those who are fighting cancer; it lets them know that you are with them in their fight.
Helpful Book Feb 15, 2006
By Dorothy Sasmor
As a psychologist and two-time cancer survivor, I found Dr. Carter's book to be of tremendous help. It is a well written comprehensive road map of the cancer journey. The CD was so unseful before, during and after surgery and was a calming aid during follow-up treatment. My thanks to Dr. Carter for informing the reader not only of the facts of cancer but of the emotions also. This book will continue to be of great assistance to me as well as to my patients.

A Powerful Workbook and CD Jan 31, 2006
By Holly W. Schwartztol
"Psychologist"
By Holly W. Schwartztol, PhD
When patients receive the diagnosis of cancer, they are often overwhelmed by fear and confusion. Dr. Stephanie Carter has written a manual that clearly and sensitively addresses the quandary that patients face. It's as if Stephanie takes each person by the hand and gently guides them through the process of managing their emotions as they navigate the medical regime. Dr. Carter combines compassionate narrative with easy, stellar exercises that patients can do on their own.
The accompanying CD, Fighting Cancer, combines Dr. Carter's calming voice with soothing music. Through guided imagery and suggestions for healing, patients will find the tools to empower their immune systems to triumph over cancer cells. Dr. Carter's inclusion of specific imagery examples for overcoming disease allows the listener to more fully appreciate the process of developing their own, unique images. I enthusiastically recommend this workbook/CD combination to my psychotherapy patients and to friends who have cancer.
Perhaps, you or someone you know hs cancer. Stephanie's workbook/CD make an excellent gift and is helpful for caretakers as well as patients.
An Empowered and Soothing Way to Cope with Cancer Jan 17, 2006
By Dr. Patti Levin
"psychologist"
Dr. Carter has written an extremely user-friendly book on cancer with many useful coping strategies. This book is innovative and smart: it puts the element of control back into the hands of the cancer sufferer. And the audio is a terrific complement. I recommend it highly to anyone who is fighting cancer.
