A Fine first printing of the first edition in alike dust-jacket, signed by author Michael Parker on title page; When his wife, Cara, is diagnosed with ovarian cancer, Michael Parker is desperate for any information he can find on the disease. He turns to the internet, where he finds a wealth of information, some of it accurate, some of it alarmingly untrue. Unsure of what to believe, he turns to doctors across the country for their expertise. Every one of them tells him the same thing: surgery is the only cure. Desperate and determined, he sets out on a journey to find a cure for Cara. Along the way, he meets people from all walks of life, each with their own story to tell about cancer. He learns that the disease is complex and multi-faceted, and that there is no one answer to its cure. In the end, Michael comes to realize that the only way to find a cure for Cara is to find the cure for cancer itself.; 8vo; 287 pages; Signed by Author .
