More DescriptionA fascinating and instructive account of how a family managed while suffering with breast cancer. The emotional strategies used by a father and a daughter while confronting a double mastectomy, chemotherapy and radiation treatments. A Father's Journey, A Daughter's Voyage: A Cancer Journal is a look at a father and daughter's relationship, set in the old south-Lexington, Kentucky, with its special history of compassion and yet racial divides; a story of unity in the face of diversity. A Father's Journey, A Daughter's Voyage: A Cancer Journal is told through edited entries from a journal maintained by the father, poetry from the daughter, and discussions of how to manage a family while fighting the terror of double mastectomy, chemotherapy and radiation treatments. A Father's Journey, A Daughter's Voyage: A Cancer Journal reveals the special fears occasioned by race when seeking medical support; the philosophical and psychological issues one faces while confronting the uncertainty created by breast cancer. In addition, sources of information helpful for families to become cancer survivors is provided.
