Description
Imagine, if you can, stepping into the role of cancer caregiver the day after you’ve signed your divorce papers from your spouse.
Derrick Green was a divorcing, 26-year-old soldier in the US Army, preparing for a rotational deployment to Iraq when he received a phone call that changed his life. His wife of seven years, Shirili, had discovered a lump in her breast and their journey through breast cancer had now begun.
Overcoming obstacles was a familiar feat in Derrick's life, but he was ignorant to the challenges he’d face in providing care to someone who seemingly hated him as much as she loved him. Whether cleaning toilets, struggling with depression, or battling fatigue in the sleepless nights, Derrick provides vivid accounts, raw and emotionally authentic, of the uglier side of cancer caregiving.
If you are currently, or have supported in the past, someone enduring treatment or terminal cancer diagnosis, you’ll find that this is one cancer book that has relevance to your life. There are few that truly understand the struggles that you have as you do your best to be your best for the person you love. Derrick understands. This is his journey as a caregiver of another victim of breast cancer.
