Supplements

Thousands and thousands of our readers for over ten years have found our Publications and Supplements an excellent and invaluable resource.

An important part of recovery is receiving support from others who have been through a similar experience and, likewise, sharing your experience with those in treatment is fulfilling. It can be very reassuring to find that others share similar feelings. These and other Journals published by Multimed Inc., offer easy to understand facts and information that lend themselves well to giving patients a better understanding of their disease while helping both themselves and loved ones in dealing with cancer.

Ovarian Cancer & You

When facing a chronic disease, patients, families, and friends need all the information, knowledge and emotional help they can get. Cancer can isolate patients from loved ones and can strain relationships. The disease in its many forms brings about many questions and uncertainties for all those involved.

Our easy-to-understand publication, "Ovarian Cancer & You" can provide patients, families, friends and health professionals an opportunity to gain answers in an informative and helpful approach.

Breast Cancer & You

For women with breast cancer — Everyone’s situation is unique and no two people feel the same. Often, however, there are feelings that are shared, and women frequently find that members of the group help them to confront and accept their fears and regain the joy in living. Such is the message and information in "Breast Cancer & You".

For women who are not in remission and continue to live with cancer and are receiving treatment, this group provides an opportunity for women to share feelings with others who have had similar experiences.
