In February 2023, a routine physical changed everything. A single phone call from my doctor — "We found microscopic traces of blood in your urine" — set off a chain of events that would end, three months later, with a surgeon telling me I had a lethal cancer and that without radical, life-altering surgery, I would soon be dead.
This book is the diary of the year that followed.
But this is not simply a cancer story. It is a story about choice — and about the discovery that when it comes to life-and-death medical decisions, the doctors don't always agree. Suddenly, I was the one who had to decide: Which doctor was right? Which path made sense for the life I still wanted to live? Did I want a longer life or would I prefer a better, but shorter one? Was I willing to endure grueling procedures and long recoveries for an uncertain outcome?
With honesty, humor, and my occasional lack of tact, this is an account of navigating one of the hardest things a person can face — not just the diagnosis, but the decision. It is an easy, deeply human read for anyone confronting difficult medical choices, and an intimate window for medical professionals into what their patients are truly thinking, hoping, and fearing.
