This book is about cancer.
And it isn't.
In 2016, Andy Nelson was diagnosed with stage IV cancer and given odds that made the future look frighteningly short.
What followed was not a straight path toward triumph. It was surgeries and chemotherapy. Recurrences and reprieves. Fear and determination. Anger and gratitude. Family, faith, music, friendship, laughter--and the persistent discovery that some of life's greatest gifts can exist right alongside its hardest moments.
Survivor's Gratitude: The Gifts of Cancer, Clarity, and Connection is Andy's honest, funny, vulnerable account of what happened when the life he had planned became the life he could never have planned.
But this isn't a prescription for how to "beat" cancer.
It's an invitation to all of us:
Pay attention to the life you have.
Hold close the people who matter.
Listen for what is yours to do.
And don't wait for a diagnosis to begin.
Survivor's Gratitude is for:
Andy's fellow cancer survivors. As soon as someone is diagnosed, they're a survivor. From that point forward, a lasting solidarity takes hold and endures.
Medical providers and caregivers, for their exquisite and tender help. May they feel humanity and gratitude back from survivors, and perhaps find words in this book to give to the next person diagnosed, or the loved one in their care.
Anyone who's ever experienced an unplanned unfolding in their life. May they keep surviving what life throws at them, become more alive and grateful to the life they have now, and help one another do the same.
