Author begins his narrative with- "I should have died more than once. Yet I remain alive (at least for now), as can anyone with cancer, regardless of how dreadful the prognosis. People do beat the odds." What unfolds on the following pages is a story of life. Yes, Harp is diagnosed with a life-threatening and often debilitating disease, but ordinary daily life has a way of creeping in, and Harp relays it all beautifully. Between snippets about diagnostic tests, treatments, fear, and the challenges of acceptance, there is the wonderfully mundane. Passages about everyday living while your body is hurting make his story relatable.
