David Servan-Schreiber, the author of "Anti-Cancer", was also a cancer victim himself.
Unfortunately, he passed away on July 24, 2011 after 20 years of treatment.
Ironically, the cite says his "battle" with cancer.
But besides that, the real reason I'll be using this book for my topic is because of the author's experience with cancer and how he lived.
Servan-Schreiber, diagnosed with brain cancer, tried to find natural cures for his sickness and lived a healthy life.
What I find to be extraordinary about the author is how he dedicated himself to informing everyone through blogs and his book.
Through the information the author provides in his book, I want to spread a better understanding of how delicately such a situation should be handled.
For example, I would not disrespect the author who passed away to be a "loser" in his "battle" against cancer.
I think he brought a good contribution to the cause and his own ideas and ways of handling cancer. It's a process of healing, not a battle.
Patience and dedication is how you stay alive - there is no easy way out of this situation.
So I ask that you will give more respect to this issue and be more aware of the sufferings of cancer victims.
*Rest in Peace* David Servan-Schreiber (April 21, 1961 – July 24, 2011)
