In 2005, Dr. William Penzer, a psychologist for more than forty years, found himself sitting with his wife in the waiting room of Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center. Their 31 year old daughter had been diagnosed with breast cancer. Nothing in his life or his work had prepared him for this experience. Like a traveler in a foreign land which Dr. Penzer came to call Cancerville, this loving father and seasoned psychologist discovered the pain-filled reality of supporting a loved one who has been diagnosed with cancer. In this warm and powerful book, Dr. Penzer takes you by the hand as a guide on this demanding journey to help you support both yourself and your loved one. "This is written by someone who is a native, not a tourist. He has been to Cancerville and learned from his difficulties what healing is truly about. Let his experience and his words coach you on your journey."  —Bernie Siegel, MD, author, Love, Medicine and Miracles "Bill's compassion as a healer shines through each page."  —George P.
