In All of Us Warriors, Rebecca Whitehead Munn paints a realistic picture of the impact cancer has on an individual' s life, and she attempts to demystify the experience by sharing heartfelt stories from twenty survivors and the loved ones of those that passed. They are mothers and fathers with seven types of cancers and all stages of the disease, as well as advice regarding how to approach someone you love living with cancer and tips and tricks for helping others feel joy in the midst of pain. This inspirational book provides a positive outlook of strength and perseverance through belief in a higher power, reinforcing the idea that the reader is stronger than cancer and not alone, and offering real strategies that cannot be found in online medical sites. Like a conversation with a new best friend (or twenty of them), All of Us Warriors is full of understanding, acceptance, and practical advice gained from personal experience.
2020 International Book Awards Winner in Heath: Cancer 2020 International Book Awards Finalist in Self-Help: General "What sets this volume apart from other cancer accounts is that it includes the stories of those who did not survive, told from the perspectives of their loved ones. Because of this, the book succeeds in demystifying the experience of having cancer or loving someone who does. " --Kirkus Reviews "In this book Ms. Whitehead Munn truly captures the highs and lows of a cancer diagnosis. The stories she tells provide insights into living with cancer. Each story contains nuggets of advice that patients and caregivers alike will find helpful as they navigate a diagnosis. A must-read for anyone who knows someone with cancer and is looking for ways to understand their loved one' s experience. " --Christie Lockhart, Colon Cancer Coalition "This book is life-changing for cancer patients and their loved ones. It is like a conversation with a new best friend (or twenty of them), full of understanding, acceptance, and practical advice gained from personal experience. It demonstrates how much we each have to gain and to give within our unique community. It is simply a powerful fuel for the body and the soul. " --Doris Schneider, author of Borrowed Things, By Way of Water, and Nana and the "c" "An inspirational, raw, and much-needed glimpse into how cancer changes life forever.

" --Aaron Grunke, founder of Survivor Fitness Foundation "This book serves a tremendous resource for cancer patients and their families. " --Ricardo J. Komotar, MD, FAANS, FACS, Program Director, Department of Neurological Surgery, University of Miami School of Medicine "The word ' cancer' can be a frightening term to many.

" --Dr. Robin Williams, breast surgeon at Saint Thomas Medical Partners "There is untold wisdom in each point of view . . .
