Bald: Confronting Cancer and Living Large - Paperback

by Kate Bigwood Atkinson (Author)

Cancer is more than a disease; it is an opportunity-to reflect on what makes life so precious. Bald is the story of one precious life-a life that has been enriched by family, friends, chance encounters, hilarious experiences, and vivid memories. Throughout the day-to-day treatment provided by professionals responsible for care and cure, Kate Bigwood Atkinson serves up the bald truth in this riveting memoir.

Cancer is a sobering struggle, yet humor features prominently in Bald-along with the tears, anger, and frustration that often accompany a battle with the disease. Everyone's experience of serious illness is unique. But we all share a world filled with powerful diversions and loyal companions-human and otherwise. Whether or not you or a loved one has been diagnosed with cancer, Bald will inspire you to make the most of the life you have been given.
