Additional Details ------------------------------ Product description: Being diagnosed with any chronic or terminal illness is devastating. It is even more devastating when the patient is young and hasn?t had time to enjoy life. Young patients, unlike their geriatric counterparts, are usually healthy up until the time that the diagnosis is made. Immediately, they are immersed in the complex world of medical jargon, procedure, and submitting themselves to invasive tests they know very little or nothing about. All this can happen suddenly and without warning. Regardless of how devastating the diagnosis is, the battle to survive must be fought. Some individuals fare better than others; some quickly learn how to take matters in stride. In all circumstances, how we do in the end is determined by our perception of our illness and the support we have going into the battle. Living with any chronic or terminal illness is a real battle, and often it can be fought and won. It all depends on how we define winning.
