Böcker av Stephen Butterman

Author Stephen Butterman is back! Now, victorious over cancer, something else has afflicted him! Little did he know that curing cancer would affect something else, his heart! No not the loving part, the organ, the muscle, the thing in his body that ticks on and keeps everything else going! The heart that pumps his life force, the blood that soars through his veins has been damaged by the chemotherapy that chased away his cancer! His conclusion? "I'd rather have cancer!" His humor is still evident in this book, and he has not stopped fighting! Feeling that a failing heart is far less glamorous than a fight against cancer, and probably being right about this, he sets out to find his way on yet another journey through his life. You might say his conclusion is to live until you die, remember and relish the past, and have as good a time as possible while you are here on this earth! Illustrations for this book 'sequel' are by Adam Frizzell.

This book takes a humorous look at a very serious situation, and while it does not at all downgrade the seriousness of the situation, it most certainly does give the reader an opportunity to ponder and smile. In case you haven't gotten the gist of the subject of this book, this book is about the dreaded "C" word that no one likes to utter, but is never far from anyone's mind, concerns or lips; because none of us have gone through this world, not even for a short span of time without being touched by it in one of its forms or another. Yes, we are talking about cancer, and if you have cancer or know someone who has cancer (and who doesn't fall into one of these two categories?) then this is the obvious book for you. Get your humor on and enjoy the illustrations of political illustrator and artist, Adam Frizzell, and the words of Stephen Butterman. And remember to see the humor in all of life, because it is really true that laughter truly is the very best medicine of all.
