Description

Living with Cancer presents the winners of the Gilda's Club New York City teen essay contest, which put to its young writers the challenge of expressing what it feels like to LIVE with cancer; not to struggle with cancer, or even understand it, but simply to record the honest experience of living with it, alongside it. These essays give voice to teens whose lives and the lives of those they love have been affected by cancer, expressing their experiences with bravery, humor, and above all, honesty. These diverse and inspiring accounts will impress upon readers the openness and emotional maturity of their teen authors, who have found a place in both Gilda's Club and within these pages to let go, to be themselves, and to never face cancer alone.Tonya Hurley is a New York Times and international bestselling author of the ghostgirl series and The Blessed trilogy. Her books are published in nearly 30 countries and in more than 20 languages. Ms....
