| My Family's Journey Through Cancer In December of 1995, at the age of twenty-four, Lisa Shaw-Brawley was diagnosed with Hodgkin's disease, a form of lymphoma. Lisa and her husband were visiting her family in California during the Christmas holidays when swollen glands sent her to see her lifelong family doctor. Based on the journal she kept from the moment she was diagnosed, Only When I Sleep: My Family's Journey Through Cancer is her inspiring, first-hand account of what she learned that day and the battle she fought against cancer. The story chronicles both the emotional and physical journey of cancer, including the numerous tests and treatments Lisa endured. Honest and forthright, she does not disguise the bitter truth of her experience or the fear that accompanied her diagnosis. Because of this, the book can reassure newly diagnosed cancer patients that their fears#of possible infertility, hair loss and recurrence#are normal and give them guidance on facing these fears. Only When I Sleep is also the story of Lisa Shaw-Brawley's family, and their journey through a harrowing and ultimately strengthening experience. The book is a remarkable story of family love and the commitment of marriage, is it explores the tensions and comforts of returning home as a married adult. In vivid prose, Lisa invites you into her family's home, into their hearts, and into the battle of their lives. As you join her in this journey, you will be moved, informed, reassured and assisted in your own personal journey. In the end, a second miracle in Lisa's life proves to be the ultimate lesson in redemption and hope. This, coupled with her determined fight, will send a clear message of survival that will inspire and empower other cancer patients. |
