“Grief is for the strong, who use it as fuel for burning”

Insightful, reassuring and honest. Enjoyed reading this book more than any other "cancer" book since my own diagnosis. I identified with this quote in so many ways. I'm pretty sure every cancer patient could at some point in their treatment. ???
