Vanquishing Cancer Steven P Shepard

Steven Shepard was 28 and feeling invincible. An aerospace engineer by trade, Steve was shaping his career and life, focusing on typical twenty-something activities like work, sports, his girlfriend and cats, when his life was suddenly turned on its head: cancer.



It was an advanced stage of Hodgkin's lymphoma. Steve quickly applied his engineer's mindset to his battle with cancer and learned everything he could about treatment options and the science of cancer.



A cancer diagnosis can feel devastating, yet arming yourself with information-from scans and chemotherapy to blood work and nutrition-can erase the fear of the unknown. This knowledge will not only aid in your physical recovery as you take an active role in your treatment, but will also enhance your mental fortitude and outlook.



Steve's journey is deftly woven with information for the newly diagnosed and their caretakers. The technical aspects of cancer and cancer treatments are approachable and easy to understand, accompanied by beautiful custom illustrations.



Vanquishing Cancer: How to Win the Fight of Your Life is packed with professional research and Steve's personal advice on what to expect when you've been handed the unexpected, as well as how to manage your health and life while fighting cancer.
