Be prepared to laugh and cry as you read a whole new perspective. Carey's candid journey will change the way you assess the role cancer plays in your life, whether you are a fellow sufferer or know someone who is. This is the book Carey wished she had been able to read when she was first diagnosed. It is alternatively amusing and heart wrenching, yet when things are at their worst, she's at her funniest and most honest. Cornacchini takes a serious subject and interjects both humor and humanity into her memoir, Saving Teets: One Woman's Journey With the Big "C". With a maiden name of Teets. (Yes, you read it correctly - TEETS) she was destined to have a sense of humor. How can you not with a last name like that? She often wonders if having this last name somehow predestined her on this cancer journey. Who knows? Wanting something original for the title she finally realized there was a great use for her last name - thus "Saving Teets" was born.
Autorenporträt
Carey Teets Cornacchini, a wife, mother, and now CeCe, was living her best life in the burbs when she was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2011. Always referring to her first dance with the Big "C" as a drive-by, she was ecstatic to achieve her 5-year anniversary only to discover after her next mammogram that she was Stage 3.(Talk about blindsided!)To help her cope with her wild ride, she journaled and blogged during both journeys. Writing about it all let her release her fears and frustrations. Though she claims she's not a writer, family, friends, and readers have said otherwise. After many overwhelmingly positive reviews, and with much encouragement (like a lot!), she decided to share her journey so others would know that treating cancer can be an experience filled with love, humor, and hope.
