{"product_id":"stellas-story-kay-loveland-9780595319602","title":"Stella's Story: Fighting for Life Against a Malignant Brain Tumor","description":"I wish there had been a book like this when I was fighting alongside my partner, Stella, as her 24\/7 caregiver in a 19-month battle against the deadliest brain tumor, glioblastoma multiforme (GBM). Too often I felt sideswiped by unexpected obstacles. The Internet was a great resource, but having a book at hand illuminating the day-to-day struggle--treatments, questions, decisions, emotions, surprises--would have helped immensely.\u003cp\u003e After Stella died in November 2000, I wanted to write such a guidebook for caregivers and patients who, sadly, are following in our footsteps. As I reviewed hundreds of e-mails to and from friends, Brain Tumor List members, doctors, and others, I realized the book was already written. It provides an almost-daily, immediate chronicle of our experiences, including weeks in a Mexican clinic. A detailed Table of Contents and Index help readers find information about doctors, treatments, medications, and problems ranging from bed sores to radiation injury.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e In addition, the book offers a positive message about love, devotion, and fighting for life that, I hope, will inspire others as they confront negativity on a daily basis in their struggle to prevail against all the odds.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kay Loveland\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0595319602\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780595319602\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e iUniverse\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/02\/2004\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 248\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.81lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.56d\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kay Loveland","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47199872090367,"sku":"9780595319602","price":18.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_1c4e3f8b-c76b-4721-a09c-0430706bbc6b.jpg?v=1756785438","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/stellas-story-kay-loveland-9780595319602","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
