Abstract: When Henry Scowcroft's partner Zarah was diagnosed with stage IV bladder cancer in her mid-thirties, their world fell apart. In order to cope with the upheaval as they endured scans, aggressive chemotherapy and hospital stays, Henry began writing down and sharing their experiences with friends and family. His day job as a writer for the charity Cancer Research UK helped him to explain everything he was learning from the coalface of cancer treatment - including Zarah's diagnosis and their rollercoaster journey through the health system. After Zarah's untimely death Henry found some closure and comfort by trying to learn more about her cancer from scientific analysis of the test results and biopsies taken during her treatment and enlisted a team of doctors and researchers to help him. Could he have done more? How did Zarah's tumour develop? Could there be a legacy from her death that would help others diagnosed with cancer? This heart-wrenching memoir of love and loss is interspersed with Henry's mission to understand the cancer that took his partner too soon. -- Page 2 of cover

Abstract: No special topic on page 9.; This publication has recently undergone an evaluation, and we extend our thanks to all our readers who participated in the evaluation process. In 2013, we will launch a revised version of the publication based on the feedback we received through the evaluation and on current testing of a possible future format. To make this process possible, the 2012 edition has been shortened so that we may dedicate our resources to improving future editions. The 2012 publication therefore does not include the sections on five-year relative survival, prevalence, probability of developing or dying from cancer, cancer in children and youth, or a special topic. Similarly, we will not produce a printed (hard copy) edition for 2012. The publication will continue to be available at no charge through the Canadian Cancer Society's website at: www.cancer.ca/statistics. -- page 5.
