Most cancer patients and survivors think that "rest" will decrease their fatigue and speed their recovery. But in fact, rest can make most patients weak and debilitated during treatment and may prolong hospitalization. Based on Dr. Anna Schwartz's research and life's work as a nurse and coach, Cancer Fitness offers cancer patients and survivors comprehensive advice and an easy step-by-step program to begin improving their physical and emotional health and reclaiming their lives beyond cancer.
