Product Description

A humorous and touching first-hand book about fighting cancer -- makes a thoughtful cancer gift.

It's Not About the Hair - And Other Certainties of Life & Cancer tackles loads of important life issues with compassion, humor, wisdom and a healthy dose of irreverence...I'm recommending it to colleagues, patients, friends and family" - Julie R Gralow, MD, Associate Professor of Medical Oncology, University of Washington; Associate Breast Cancer Program Head, Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center

Author: Debra Jarvis

For more than two decades, author Debra Jarvis has counseled, encouraged, and guided cancer patients in her work as a chaplain. She knows above all else that, when it comes to cancer, it's not about the hair. In an ironic twist of fate, after years of tending to people with all types of cancer, Jarvis herself was diagnosed with Stage II breast cancer. This book, warm, wise, and funny, is the account of her time with the disease. But wound into her personal cancer story are the many patients and caregivers Jarvis has encountered, advised, and learned from. It's Not About the Hair is happy and sad, provocative and empowering.
