Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Persevere: A Life with Cancer is a book for people living with cancer and those who love and care about them.

It is a moving and inspiring portrait of what it means to live with a terminal illness. 
 
 Lisa fearlessly addresses difficult topics such as what to say to friends and family; how to make good decisions and handle bad news; and, most importantly, how to keep going when things start to seem hopeless. As Lisa said, If you want to know what the future might be like, ask someone who has been there.
 
 Lisa was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2006 at the age of 37. She began writing about her life as a legacy to leave for her family. She wrote on her personal blog and through social media.

She helped those with cancer feel understood, and those without cancer to understand.
 
 When Lisa died in 2015, her readers asked for a book that would bring together her most popular writings in one place. Her mother and brother curated and organized her writings into this book. In accordance with Lisa's wishes, all proceeds from the book go towards researching a cure for metastatic breast cancer.…
