The Mayo Clinic's Dr. Robert Kyle and other cancer experts have hailed The Husband's Guide to Cancer Survival as "advice that is right on target" and "a valuable resource combining personal and professional experiences into a roadmap for caregivers". "Your Wife Has Cancer." Mark Elliott Miller heard these words in April 2003 and, over the following year, joined his wife on a heart-wrenching journey through cancer treatment. Mr. Miller spent much of his 20-year career reaching out to others facing serious illnesses. He also earned a Master of Public Health degree. However, when cancer entered his family's life, there truly was no experience or education that prepared him for what was to come. In searching for greater understanding of his wife's cancer and his role as a husband during this illness, Mr. Miller wrote a journal while his wife slept after chemotherapy, radiation therapy and stem cell transplants. He also scoured the Internet, talked with other patients and their families, and asked many questions of the doctors and nurses. "This is a testimonial to my late wife's amazing courage," explains Mr. Miller. "Her battle will surely inspire others." A portion of sales will fund cancer research and family support services.Miller, Mark Elliott is the author of 'Husband's Guide to Cancer Survival ', published 2004 under ISBN 9780975951606 and ISBN 0975951602.
