Description

"Millie was seven years old when she was first diagnosed with brain cancer. To rebuild her physical and mental strength, both significantly depleted following seven months of intensive treatment, Millie and I made a habit of going on regular walks in the countryside. As part of those, we also started talking about her cancer and the limitations that this disease and its cure was going to impose on her life.

"This is the book I wish I'd had when my daughter was first diagnosed."

Marco Previero covers several aspects of brain cancer and its related treatment in layman's terms, making it easy to understand for fellow parents facing similar circumstances including; the many practical challenges that parents, and survivors of childhood brain tumours face in the long-term depending on the position of the tumour, its related treatment and cure, how the body copes with therapy, and the level of support available in the recovery phase. He provides an objective exploration and reflection of Millie's treatment, the limitations it has imposed, and what they found helpful in addressing and managing these during treatment and recovery.



About the Author
Marco Previero discovered writing after his daughter Millie was diagnosed with brain cancer in 2013. Since then, he has published a book, national articles and appeared both on TV and radio programmes to advocate for better quality of life for childhood brain tumour survivors. Marco spends his time both as a Trustee of Success Life After Cure Ltd, the charity his new book is in support of, and running his own real estate consultancy business in London.

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
