Hi. My oncologist told me about this web site and that you guys review books. I have written a memoir about my successful fight against stage IV colorectal cancer. My small press book, Cancer Warrior: Where the Mind Goes, is for sale on Amazon and on Barnes and Noble.com, and has a December 2011 review on small press bookwatch.com. If you or any of the other doctors are interested in reading my story of how I used conventional and unconventional treatment – just 150 pages – I would be happy to send you a free copy. All my profits from the sale of my book go to Memorial Sloan Kettering.
Hi Patricia,
I hope you are well. I wanted to touch base to discuss your current initiatives with your blog and learn where we might be able to collaborate. We recently launched our own blog http://www.iht2blog.com and I definitely feel like there is some synergy between our interests and I would love to discuss how we might be able to work together to support each other’s initiatives. Please let me know when you might have some time to discuss any opportunities. I look forward to hopefully speaking with you.
Thanks,
Hi Pat,
Do you remember me? I am retired and in the process of editing and restoring old family photos among other pursuits. Today I removed some old photos from one of those old “magnetic” albums. Many featured the kids from the El Cerrito playgroup in 1972-3. I can’t recall if I gave you copies back then. Contact me if you want edited versions via Dropbox. Perhaps we can share how the kids turned out. I see you have been quite successful.
