"Scars may heal, blood counts may normalize, years may pass. But never again will the simple act of waking up to a normal, boring day as a healthy individual be taken for granted, nor go unappreciated." - Allison A., Cairo, Egypt
Surviving cancer is a different experience for everyone. But one thing most survivors say is that their life after the cancer is not the same. Cancer survivors from all walks of life responded to a New York Times request to send in a photo and answer the question, "How is your life different after cancer?" The responses make up a powerful new book from The Times and the American Cancer Society titled Picture Your Life After Cancer, edited by Karen Barrow, web producer for the science desk of The New York Times. This book includes more than 200 stories of cancer survivors.(from American Cancer Society)
