HELP FOR CANCER PATIENTS

The National Cancer Institute publishes a free booklet, "Chemotherapy and You," that can help patients help themselves during chemotherapy. You may call (800) 4-CANCER for a copy.

The American Cancer Society can help patients weather chemotherapy by improving their appearance and self-image. Call the local chapter or (800) 395-LOOK and ask about the "Look Good . . . Feel Better" program.

Nancy Bruning, who had chemotherapy herself, wrote a very useful book, "Coping with Chemotherapy" (Ballantine paperback, 1986, $3.95). - The New York Times
