Must have for doctors and patients. Tried and true wisdom.

No one can explain so well what Dr Siegel advises for doctors, nurses and especially patients navigating tough medical diagnoses.No matter what faces you, this book helps.First read it 35 years ago. Have reread recently after cancer diagnosis.Have bought at least 2 dz over the years to give as gifts. And to educate doctors and nurses and facilities. A must read for all medical and dental schools.

Perspective is important

I discovered this book in the late 1980s after my Dad's death from colon cancer. What I love about Bernie Siegal is that he does not recommend a particular cancer treatment. He writes about a way to view oneself. In the days when he began to change the way he saw his patients, passivity was the norm for those with life threatening illness. One was encouraged to merely do as the doctor said, not ask questions, and die quietly.I have now been a healthcare worker for well over 30 years, and I am seeing a resurgence of this attitude among institutions. Today's idea is to see the "patient" as a "customer" and to sell fear, (as I see it). We've turned back to encouraging passivity. The lifesaving measures for you or your loved one may be inside the walls of a healthcare facility, or maybe not. ASK QUESTIONS! On the other hand, that alternative practitioner could be preying upon the uninformed. ASK QUESTIONS.What I see as important about what Bernie is saying is that you must find out how you "see it", rather than buying whatever we (mainstream or alternative) have to sell you. The best way to survive the medical maze is to participate in your recovery, in your very life. Your specific answers are not here, but ways to seek them are indeed inside this volume.Bernie's writing is enlightening and positive, though not in a simplistic "put on a smile" way. I believe this is a must read for those living with cancer and for their families.A supposedly scientific study stated that positivity does not statistically improve survival rates. Who gives a damn? I, personally, would rather have a short, happy life than a long, miserable one. When I come near death, joy is what I want for myself and for my family.

A book filled with HOPE

If you have a loved one facing the devastating news of cancer or any life threatening illness, this is a fantastic tool to put in their hands or read together if it is your significant other or your child. HOPE lives in between the pages of this and the other books and materials from Dr Bernie Siegel.My late husband and I had the blessing of attending Dr. Siegel's seminars and workshops back so many years ago and my and my hubby's outlook into his disease were forever changed. We had been handed a sentence by an oncologist that had no understanding that his job was first to heal. Dr Siegel changed that and I attribute to his teachings much of the time we had together that was far beyond the initial prognosis. My heart is grateful even after two decades since my beloved went on to meet the Lord because I recall how this loving doctor Siegel made a difference to us.Today I find myself buying this book for one of my parents who has been diagnosed with Cancer. The journey begins anew.Blessings upon all of you who are confronted with an illness that is threatening your life or the life of someone beloved to you. -- Please let me know if you find my review helpful. It is always nice to know writing these reviews makes a difference.

small print

I bought after reading on my Kindle so I could loan it out, but the print is a little small for the seniors here in my assisted care facility. Guess it can't be helped.

When you don't know what to say...

"Love, Medicine and Miracles was given to me by a friend who worked with hospice patients. I have given it to my patients over the intervening thirty years because it gives advice about how to live your daily life with a diagnosis of cancer. It does not require a faith background, but it deals with how to cope with the situation realistically. This is the first of a series of books by Dr. Siegel, but you need to start at the beginning. Most patients to whom I have recommended the book end up buying copies for their familiy and friends. Flip through and read whatever pertains to the day. It is a roadmap to lfe.

Love, Medicine and Miracles

A very enlightening read. Dr. Bernie Siegal's insights reaffirmed thoughts, ideas, and beliefs that I have learned over the years from other sources. These insights are great for healing whatever ails you.

Positive and inspiring book!

I first bought this book when my Dad was battling lung cancer. I read it to him while he got his hour long chemo drip (this was mid 80’s). He was told he would have about 2 months to live. He said “I’m not going to believe that! I’m not ready to die”. He lived for a year plus a few months. I reread this book when I I was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2014. I was lucky since they discovered the lump during my routine mammogram. I’ve since bought about 50 copies to give to other people with limited time left to live. I wrote an inscription in the front of each book special for each patient. I asked them to pass book onto another person with health issues. Everyone thanked me for the book after reading it. Everyone should read this book! I highly recommend!!
