An honest book about what to expect after a cancer diagnosis and throughout treatment for both patients and family members, from medical oncologist Dr Sanjay Juneja. This is a book for children affected by the Big C. Whether they have cancer, or they know someone with cancer, they will have a lot of questions. And even for adults cancer is a really hard thing to talk about! Luckily Dr Sanjay Juneja is an expert at having these tricky conversations. In this book, featuring sensitive illustrations by Anna Shepeta, readers will get the answers to questions such as: Why does some people's hair fall out when they have cancer? How can I support someone with cancer? What can I expect in hospital? Taking a fact-based approach, the book will explain what cancer is, highlight the different types of cancer, introduce the medical staff that help patients on their journey, and look at different types of treatment. It will also give advice about mental health - and look at what happens once someone has been given the all-clear. Hopefully this book can act as a useful resource to help kids and families affected by cancer. Also available in this critically-acclaimed series: We Need to Talk About Vaginas, We Need to Talk About Divorce, We Need to Talk About Death
