Synopsis

COCOON OF CANCER: AN INVITATION TO LOVE DEEPLY is a book of inspiration for those diagnosed with cancer, their caregivers, and family. Writing in “real time,” the patient and caregiver offer an insider’s look at how life changes forever when the word cancer is uttered. A realistic and hopeful work, it keeps one centered and also provides tips on how to manage life and illness. Sometimes raw, letters to and from friends, voice the unspeakable. The scientific voice of Jim, the patient, comes through when he has the energy to speak. This is an invitation to feel and find comfort. Abbe offers invaluable insights with her Caregiver Tips, Questions I Still Ponder, and Questions for the Reader. A love story that keeps your heart open.

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Abbe Rolnick grew up in the suburbs of Baltimore, Maryland. Her first major cultural jolt occurred at age 15 when her family moved to Miami Beach, Florida. In order to find perspective, she climbed the only non-palm tree at her condo-complex, and wrote what she observed. Here history came alive with her exposure to the Cuban culture. This introduction to the Latino Culture proved fortuitous. At Boston University she met her first husband, a native of Puerto Rico. Her first novel, River of Angels, stems from her experiences during her stay in Puerto Rico. Stateside, she capitalized on the knowledge she gained as an independent bookstore owner and worked for one of the finest bookstores, Village Books, in Bellingham, WA. More recently she opened a healthy foods cafe. Color of Lies, her second novel, brings the reader to the Pacific Northwest where she presently resides. Here she blends stories from island life with characters in Skagit Valley. Her short stories and travel pieces have appeared in magazines, and have won honorary mention by Writer’s Digest for her short story, Swinging Doors. Her next novel, Founding Stones, will be the third in the series, continuing the stories of characters from the two previous novels, introducing new themes that connect Skagit Valley to the larger world.
