What Doctors May Not Tell Lung Cancer Patients: New Treatment Guide Offers Hope, Empowerment!
February 25th, 2010
HOLLYWOOD, Calif. (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — Lange Productions announces today that “Be a Survivor – Lung Cancer Treatment Guide” (ISBN: 978-0-9819489-1-1) is the first book to offer a new approach to this frightening disease. It empowers patients to seek a cure, rather than accept defeat; to approach their diagnosis with hope, and shows them how to seek out effective treatments.
“Today lung cancer is not the automatic death sentence it once was,” says the author, Dr. Vladimir Lange. “New treatments, new drugs, and earlier diagnosis make survival much more likely than it was just a few years ago.”
Lung cancer patients often struggle under the stigma that their disease was self-inflicted. Their physicians sometimes approach them with less optimism, citing the poor overall survival rates. Simply put, as a group, lung cancer patients are under-informed, and under-encouraged.
“The doctor told me I had eight months to live,” remembers Ed, a lung cancer survivor. “That was eleven years ago.”
