CANCER IS FOR OLD(er) PEOPLE
by Brett Cordes M.D. and Amy Calkins Teague with Kyle Moses
SYNOPSIS
This project/book, Cancer is for Old(er) People, began in 1997, when I wrote extensively about my experience battling Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma. That writing has stayed, untouched, at my parent’s house in Louisiana for the last 2 decades. I had entitled it “Cancer is For Old People,” as it was written BY a teenager/young person…FOR young people.
