Description

Find a cozy place. Pour yourself a comforting cup of tea. Sit awhile with me. Let’s chat about how your life is changing, based on three small words, “You have cancer”. I have heard these words not once, but twice. And I was left speechless in the process. No one else in my family had faced the reality of this incredible life-altering event. No one in my friend circle had heard these words, either. I was alone in many ways. This book is a collection of my thoughts and experiences. Many of which I have shared with newly diagnosed cancer patients, a sharing I continue with, even though my diagnosis was almost a decade ago. It is not technical in nature that is left to your treating physician. It is a source for real life events from me, one person, who was initially told that I had less than 6 months to live. I hope this brings some comfort, and laughter, to you as you read these pages.
