Synopsis

My life was turned upside down when I found an odd lump on the side of my neck while shaving one morning during the Main Event of the World Series of Poker in Las Vegas, July 2014. One month later, it was confirmed that I had neck cancer. From Feeding Tube to Final Table is an emotional, raw, and compelling compilation of the blog I kept on CaringBridge.org while battling the Big C. It covers the entire journey from discovery to seven weeks of daily radiation and chemo treatments to a cancer-free diagnosis and recovery. You’ll meet my angels who fueled me with the strength to fight and see how the support of a small community filled me with ongoing hope and inspiration. If you are a cancer patient, survivor, or have a friend or family member that is battling cancer, this book is for you!
