Abstract

"In Cancer Stories five people share their journeys, their stories and the suffering they faced before their deaths. These narratives chronicle the despair, hope and love they experienced while living and dying with cancer, giving the power of the human spirit full voice. Lessons learned are presented as 'gifts' at the conclusion of each of the five narratives." -- Back cover
