Albany, NY, April 15, 2010 --(PR.com)-- If you or someone you love is undergoing cancer treatment, explore this Dog Ear Publishing published book, which provides hope and encouragement as well as practical medical information. The text is divided into two parts. The first is based on real events and provides a motivational view of the human aspect of cancer, providing a spiritual focus for the treatment of this insidious disease. The second provides a comprehensible overview of cancer and aims to take the mystery out of chemotherapy. Patients and their families will find explanations of medical concepts and terms, as well as in-depth ideas for coping – or even preventing – side effects of treatment ranging from anemia and hair loss to lack of appetite and fertility issues.

Skeoch, an experienced certified oncology nurse, uses a narrative style to bring sections of the book to life. The Valley opens with a cancer survivor’s joyous drive and tells us how cancer patients realize what’s important in life. Gardeners in the Valley focuses on those who care for patients: caring office staff who change a patient’s attitude, a dedicated nurse who insists on treatment instead of hospice for a specific patient because of the unique circumstances of that particular case, selfless chemotherapy volunteers, and loving therapy dogs and their handlers. And the Grass Grew Green sheds light on the spiritual aspect of cancer. For instance, a young woman diagnosed with cancer transforms herself into a professional artist, and uses her faith to put her hand into the hand of God to be guided through the valley.

The Valley Where Grass Grows Green designed to be reader-friendly, is a must-read for those going through cancer, whether they are patients, family members, nursing or medical students, hospice families, support group organizers or health professionals. Those who want to read further can choose selections from a bibliography included in the book.
