Description
Most people worry about getting older. But four-time cancer survivor Steve Webster worries about not getting older.
Cancer has been a supporting character in Steve’s life since
1987. Since then, he has overcome addiction, undergone open heart surgery,
slept months of his life away in multiple medically induced comas, and fathered
two children when doctors said he’d have none.
Neither a woe-is-me story nor a flowery feel-good tale, Nine Lives Plus One is
Steve’s gritty account of the resilience of the human mind, body and spirit. It
is the story of hope, love, perseverance and redemption. A story of
survival.
A Note From the Publisher
Steve lives in a house by the ocean in Prince Edward Island with his wife Sandra and their youngest child Sam.
He enjoys chasing foxes out of his backyard and watching the tides come in and out because that means the world is still in order on the outside.
Advance Praise
“Wow! What a great book! An intense yet easy read! I loved how the book was written, a traditional format could not have done it justice. The "character" of cancer made my heart stop every time! Steve doesn't just tell the story of surviving, he tells the story inside, almost like you look through his eyes and see the nurses, hear his experience, love who he loves. Powerful! It is courageously honest, and if you don't know this man you need to introduce yourself to him through this book, you will be better for it!” – Sue, Amazon Reviewer (July 2014)
“This is a powerful and true story that will make you laugh and cry. This book made me see life as a gift and to never give up :)” – Sasheen, Amazon Reviewer (July 2014)
