Tales from the Teal Warrior: A Memoir

" Cancer is always an abstract idea, until it happens to you or someone you love."

 The wedding vow "In sickness and in health" is put to the test in this poignant, inspiring narrative about the author's battle with stage III ovarian cancer, and her partner's ordeal with myeloproliferative disease. From the first obscure symptoms, through diagnosis, treatment, and beyond, Tales from the Teal Warrior is more than just another book about cancer. This is a true story of love and commitment, and the discovery of the "fighting spirit" that lives within each of us.
