Hope for the Best, Plan for the Rest

Dr. Sammy Winemaker and Dr. Hsien Seow join us to talk about their new book: Hope for the Best, Plan for the Rest: 7 Keys for Navigating a Life-Changing Diagnosis.

From the book: "The doctor’s office called. It’s not good news. What comes next? When you are diagnosed with a life-changing illness, it can be overwhelming. While your diagnosis cannot be changed, the way you experience your illness can."

Dr. Winemaker and Dr. Seow thoughtfully navigate the conversation about what a life-changing diagnosis can mean, and the ways in which they hope to change healthcare by offering options to help patients explore end-of-life possibilities.

The Cancer Assist Show is hosted by Dr. Bill Evans, MD, FRCP, Past President of the Juravinski Hospital and Cancer Centre at HHS. Brought to you by the Cancer Assistance Program – an organization lending support to cancer patients and families of those affected by cancer.
