"Dealing with serious illness and the threat of death is a part of the human experience, and more than other prevalent illnesses, cancer conjures up fears of suffering, helpless debilitation, and death. This text is a vivid memoir of the author's own cancer diagnosis and treatment. Harriet Wadeson, a pioneer in the art therapy profession and author of seven other books on art therapy, here shows us her own response to the challenge of cancer. In addition to the written journal, she created an 'altered book' of over 70 images throughout her cancer treatment. They are described in the text and reproduced in full color on an accompanying CD-ROM."--From back cover.
