This book is a must for the newly diagnosed and for the ones that do not have access to the internet or do not know how to search for this subject. In fact, I think it's useful for anyone having to deal with this illness, be it as patient, relative of a patient or medical professional. I was happy to mention it to the medical professional I know, so they could recommend it to their patients.

An excellent book, which is a very useful tool for patients, taking the reader through the entire process of diagnosis and ongoing medical care, and explaining some medical jargon. But most importantly, the authors address the psycological needs of the patient, an area oftenly neglected even by medical professionals.
