Publisher's summary

Our aim with this narrative is to share our journey through the labyrinth of cancer treatment—the decisions we faced, the paths we chose, and, most importantly, the lessons we learned. We hope to offer guidance, support, and perhaps a sense of solidarity to others who find themselves on a similar journey. This is not your typical medical guide; it is a well-researched companion for every aspect of your cancer journey and a deeply personal account of battling cancer from the perspective of a spouse. It highlights the critical role of the caregiver in decision-making, emotional support, and managing the day-to-day challenges that accompany this disease.

We invite you, the listener, to approach this book with an open heart and mind, ready to learn from our research, experiences and to find comfort and guidance in our shared story. While the journey through cancer is undeniably challenging, there are ways to navigate it with strength, love, and an informed perspective.

We extend our deepest gratitude to you for joining us on this journey. Your own battles and resilience in the face of cancer are a testament to the human spirit's capacity to endure and overcome.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

wonderful book

If you or someone you love has been diagnosed with cancer, I would definitely recommend this book. The author uses his first hand knowledge from when his wife went through her cancer journey to help others understand the many things the doctors just don't have time to help you with. There is just so much helpful information in this book, and at a time when you really need it.

Supplemental support to anyone going through it

Cancer is something that sometimes, instead of constantly trying to provide solutions and methods for healing and ameliorating a loved one’s symptoms, they just need to know that you are there in the ring with them.

Troy Dunham delivers a compassionate title that almost acts like a friend to the reader, sharing the ins and outs of the author’s personal experiences in what was obviously a very difficult time

The fact that an author has been so transparent with such personal endeavors is a breath of fresh air and will be sure to serve as supplemental support to anyone going through such treatments or witnessing a loved one going through these things.

Standing by Her Side

The day Mom's diagnosis came, the world tilted on its axis. Fear threatened to consume me, but then I found this book and it is more than a medical guide; it's a candid look at the emotional rollercoaster a spouse experiences during a loved one's cancer battle. It offered practical advice on navigating the complex world of healthcare systems and insurance. Now, armed with this knowledge, I can advocate for Mom at doctor's appointments and help her understand complex medical bills.

Hope and resilience

This is a powerful audiobook that offers a raw and honest look at supporting a spouse through a cancer diagnosis. Dunham offers an honest look at the challenges faced by caregivers, from choosing treatment options to coping with emotional strain. Spot on about self-advocacy!
