Honest, real and riveting, "A Pocket Full of Posies My Life With Cancer" will make you laugh and possibly cry a little as it not only describes cancer treatments and all the fun and games associated with them, but how life entwines itself with cancer pulling our true selves out in the open for self-reflection and ultimately acceptance.
This memoir encompasses the over 15 years the author lived with Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma, a cancer she had never heard of, but since discovered is the 6th most common cancer in the United States, killing more than 50% of its victims within 7-10 years of one occurrence. To some these facts would preclude a walk with death; to her they were a nuisance. As she put it she still had a life, albeit a messy one, to live.
"A Pocket Full of Posies My Life With Cancer" is a cross between Randy Pausch's "The Last Lecture" with illuminating self-reflection and Kris Carr's "Crazy Sexy Cancer Tips" with candid descriptions of cancer treatments and "life goes on" determination.
This story is different however, because the author's future is different. When she pressured her doctor at Mayo Clinic for longevity statistics he said, "We just don't have enough of 'you' to know." From life to death to the unknown, then back to life; altered.
