Living with Learning Disabilities, Dying with Cancer

Here is a moving account of 13 people living with cancer, telling of their suffering and their remarkable resilience and strength. The author spent time with these people over a period of three years, at homes, hospitals, hospices and nursing homes. The book answers many questions such as How was the person’s cancer explained to them? and How much did they understand and how did they cope with treatment?

This is a valuable resource for anyone involved in the care and support of a person with learning disabilities who has cancer and is dying.
