Hoping and Coping Helene Rennervik

In her first book, Hoping and Coping: How My Darling Little Son and I Broke Free of Cancer, Helene Rennervik has written a moving account of how she and her nine-year-old son battled osteosarcoma - cancer of the bone - and came out the other side closer and more resilient. Helene is the first to tell you that cancer changes your life forever. In Hoping and Coping, you will see how Helene's and Yousef's lives changed in unimaginable ways. But she maintains you can look for love and beauty at any moment. You can find the strength within to do what you must do. You can change for the better: get closer to your child, improve how you communicate, even learn to appreciate the richness of life because of your cancer battle. Helene has used her precious love for her child and her background as a life coach to write a book that helps readers handle the wrenching cancer diagnosis and the ups and downs of chemotherapy. Hoping and Coping offers tools to envision hope and peace in life's worst moments. The book includes guided meditations and other resources to help a parent soothe their child and give them a voice for their fears and questions.
