Endorsements

“An interesting, different, upbeat, and funny book about dealing with a terrible disease. The lessons—taking charge of one’s care, questioning authority, making hard decisions yourself rather than relying on others, the need for advocates, and keeping your sense of humor—are universal. The writing is first-rate.”

—Dr. Richard Murphy, President and CEO (retired), the Salk Institute

"A lucid and passionate account of a fight against all odds. This book will inspire patients and their families as a testament that light exists at the end of the tunnel." – Dr. Maurizio Zanetti, Cancer Researcher and Immunologist University of California, San Diego
