Inside the Mind of a Cancer Patient

Updated: Feb 24, 2022

Cancer is one thing no one hopes to see arriving at their doorstep. If and when it does, it often does so with thunderous footsteps shaking the doorframe and sometimes the very foundation of the home itself. For many, cancer is something they look at and think, "that can't happen to me..." until it does.

A unique experience that is difficult to truly picture and imagine if you have not lived through it, Inside the Mind of a Cancer Patient gives a firsthand account of what it's like to survive the Big C.

Throughout the pages are insights into the thoughts of someone battling prostate cancer with no words minced and no corners cut, hoping to convey the realities of this particular cancer and how it affects one's life.


It is the author's goal to provide a detailed firsthand account for anyone who may be entering their own battle with prostate cancer or has a loved one preparing to undergo treatment.
