This book is about the period after cancer diagnosis and treatment, described by survivors as “an in-between place, limbo,
a weird nothingness, a neutral zone”, or the Void....Picking Up the Pieces is easy to read, practical, moving and insightful. I liked the way in which the authors provided doable strategies for living through this difficult period, wrote about challenges to making changes, and advanced counterarguments to help the reader move ahead. I strongly recommend this book as a resource for friends, family members and clients.
