About this ebook
As a busy single mother, leasehold manager, and law student, Alero Dabor at first thought the exhaustion that plagued her through the summer of 2006 needed no further explanation. But a chance examination lead to a diagnosis of breast cancer, and suddenly the demands of her health would be balanced against her responsibilities to her family and her studies. In a series of journal entries written from the time of her diagnosis in July through Spring 2007, Alero explores the many faces of her cancer: her hopes and fears, physical, emotional, and financial challenges, the support she received through her family from London to West Africa, the strength provided by her faith. Her physical, spiritual, and emotional journey leads her through the initial numbness of shock at her diagnosis to the point where she takes command of her cancer and the course of her treatment.
Alero, who has since become a cancer advocate, shares how her experience as a mother and cancer survivor lead her to become someone who can give a voice to others.
