Cancer Curated: My Public Face-Off with Multiple Myeloma - E-book - ePub

Cancer is also a mental game.Because I am an author, when I was diagnosed with Multiple Myeloma in 2022, I unintentionally lived through my treatment, the ups and (some of) the downs, in a very public way.  Then something strange happened. I began to get messages and emails from strangers.  Lots of strangers.  My posts and public updates, they said, were helping them deal with their own brush with cancer-as survivors, patients, caregivers, friends, family and, sometimes, as victims.
The public updates were necessarily short and severely edited.  This book is an unedited chronology of everything I dealt with to arrive where I am today. Woven through the public posts are the raw facts and events I didn't include in the updates.  I've also included my hugely subjective opinions on some of the extremes cancer patients and their caregivers go through and how it changes you. Looking for a different way to think about cancer?  Try mine.
