My name is Cathy Reinking and this is my cancer story, told in first person, like a conversation with a close friend.

Produktbeschreibung
My name is Cathy Reinking and this is my cancer story, told in first person, like a conversation with a close friend. The book covers the years between 2006 - 2013, from when I was first diagnosed with stage 2 breast cancer, through it becoming inflammatory breast cancer, to recovering from six surgeries in three years. My story is raw, vulnerable, terrifying, and hopeful - just like me. Not for the faint of heart, and be warned, there is mature content. It's also political when it comes to health care in the United States and how this country takes care of its poor. It's all true because I lived it, and by the grace of God, have lived to tell the tale. I sure wish I had had a book like this when I was going through it. I would have been less scared and probably would have made better choices in my treatment. But this is the way God paved for me, and so I have forgiven myself.
Autorenporträt
This is Cathy Reinking's second book available on Amazon, the first being "How To Book Acting Jobs in TV and Film: SECOND EDITION: The Truth About the Acting Industry - Conversations With a Veteran Hollywood Casting Director." She is a native Angelino whose claim-to-fame is that she worked twelve years in the upper echelon's of network TV as a casting director, but she is so much more than her job. She's the only child of a Polish refugee (her dad, who died in 1972) and a Swiss immigrant, the first in her family going back all generations to even go to college let alone graduate magna cum laude from UCLA. After spending decades helping others tell their stories, she is now telling her own. They are about resilience, loss, despair, hope, optimism, reckless behavior, compassion, prayer, kindness, and a go-to attitude under adverse conditions.
