Through Their Eyes is a profound, unusual look at the course of cancer both from the patient and physician perspective. Beyond an explanation of the basic medical facts underlying cancer and its treatments, Though Their Eyes reveals the mental, spiritual, and philosophical sides of living with a devastating illness. Follow unique stories such as a man who is excited to have cancer, a nurse that rejects western medicine, a woman whose treatments cause her more problems than she could have ever imagined, a doctor who lands in hot water by misdiagnosing himself, two elderly patients whose experiences in World War II put them on opposing sides, and more. Physicians Aminder and Harshal Mehdi examine cancer primarily from the eyes of the patient, documenting the first moments of diagnosis and following the dizzying journey that ensues. They discuss the complex reasons for why certain treatments are offered, why things go right, why things go wrong, how people change, and ultimately answer the question: What does it mean to have cancer? Engaging and startling, Through Their Eyes is a perfect read for those with cancer and their friends and family who want answers to the questions they have and those they’ve never even thought of.
