Synopsis
Containing 200 images, this book follows courageous patients, strong families, and brilliant caregivers battling cancer in and out of the hospital. Photographed over the course of three years, it includes contributions from best-selling author Tom Clancy and Dr. Curt Civin, Director of Johns Hopkins Hospital's Pediatric Oncology Unit. Other insight comes from nurses, parents, siblings, and the children themselves. Not only is the book a learning tool, it attests to the fact that today more and more children survive their cancer.
