Living with Cancer
Knowledge Is Power


It is important to have current, state-of-the-art medical care to help you regain your health. This care should include the most recent advances in medical treatment, up-to-date technology, and an approach that incorporates supportive care. The quality of the doctor-patient relationship and the support of the medical team are vital to maintaining your physical and emotional health.

As well-intentioned and knowledgeable as your doctor is, it is important to recognize that only a part of the healing process is determined by the quality of your medical care. Healing also involves the biology of the illness or the disease process. Some very aggressive cancers may not respond to treatment, even though the medical approach is sound and appropriate. Fate does play a role in our lives.
