Saving Face (Paperback)

Paperback. This is the tale of one man's fateful encounter with oral cancer, and the beleaguered, life-changing journey it led him on, over the course of several years. "Saving Face" begins with a scary mid-life brush with cancer which seems to be successfully treated, but comes back later with a vengeance. Nothing seems to go the right way, from begging overconfident doctors for a solid diagnosis, to surgeries that were not as advertised, through problematic treatments, and finally facial reconstruction when nobody wanted to help. This story is neither a medical manual nor an academic treatise. It is written from an "everyman" perspective, as an average person experiencing everything first-hand, and learning as he goes along. The reader will likely find much of himself in these pages, and hopefully take away some inspiration for his own life. This item is printed on demand.
