Summary

At the tender age of forty-nine, fit, successful, and in love, Anne Kearns was diagnosed with metastatic endometrial (uterine) cancer. And not the wimpy kind of slow-moving cancer. The most aggressive kind. A few months later, she was told she had little time left.

Life Is Sweet is a delicate, heartwarming, and often humorous look at how Anne kicked, screamed, and clawed her way through her cancer journey. A journey that introduced her to meditation and singing bowls, despite her Catholic upbringing. A journey that had her on her knees, literally, as she stumbled through one treatment after another, twice facing death. A journey that stripped her of her job, her looks, her social status, yet brought surprising discoveries. And a journey that brought her closer to her then boyfriend Tom, who asked her to marry him despite her grim prognosis.

Anne's memoir provides a poignant view into what numerous cancer patients are, or soon will be going through: the roller-coaster world of innovative treatment, gut-wrenching side effects, and tantalizing hope. It touches the heart and reveals the amazing human capacity to endure and heal.
