About the Book

When you hear "very rare cancer..."And you find yourself in a place you never dreamed you would be, when the fear sets in, when unwelcomed challenges are directly in your path, when obstacles and burdens become harsh; we still have the ability to regain control and fight to help ourselves through all that lies ahead, by focusing on the power of the human spirit and hope."Being diagnosed with chordoma inevitably launches patients and their families into a series of life-changing experiences that few among the uninitiated can imagine. Confronting Chordoma Cancer: An Uncommon Journey provides one patient's vivid, firsthand account of navigating the unfamiliar territory of this new diagnosis; a story to which many fellow survivors will relate, and which provides a rare window into the types of challenges, questions, disappointments and victories that may be ahead for those who are just embarking on their own journey with chordoma."-Chordoma Foundatio
About the Author: A native of Baltimore, Maryland, and a retired kindergarten teacher, Susan found her muse at the Renaissance Institute at Notre Dame of Maryland University, a non-credit college for people over fifty. Never having embraced writing in high school or college, she began writing poetry, prose, and haiku, which ultimately led her to write her first book, Susie and Me Days: Joy in the Shadow of Dementia. Susan finds writing both stimulating and therapeutic. Now that her second book, Confronting Chordoma Cancer: An Uncommon Journey, has been published, she is considering challenging herself again by delving into writing books for children. In addition to writing, Susan is a volunteer support group facilitator for the Alzheimer's Association, Florida Gulf Coast Chapter. She has committed to become a volunteer peer guide as part of the Chordoma Foundation Peer Connect mentoring program. Susan is the mother of two sons, and stepmother to a son and daughter. She and her husband have eight grandchildren, and currently reside in Sarasota, Florida. A portion of the profits from this book will go to support the Chordoma Foundation. This non-profit organization is working to improve the lives of chordoma patients by accelerating research to develop effective treatments for chordoma, and by helping patients to get the best care possible.
