From the Back Cover

No one should go through cancer alone. "I Am with You" contains more than forty messages of support, inspiration and hope written by and for cancer patients, including Allison W. Gryphon, Rachel Naomi Remen, Susan Gubar, Alexander Niles, and Paige Davis.  "Cancer cannot foreclose on my astonishment at the mystery of life."  --John Smith "One of the most unforeseen benefits of living with cancer is the intimacy it creates with individuals we barely know. Affections spring up with surprising force."  --Susan Gubar "I love so much around me with all the pieces of my shattered heart."  --Max Jennings "I defy every attempt to limit me to my diagnosis as I dare the world to ignore it."  --Marcy Westerling "Think of this as a blanket permission slip to be mad, sad, scared, happy, empowered, confused, exhausted, up, down, furious and doubtful, but, most of all, use this as your permission slip to be hopeful."  --Allison W. Gryphon
