Title: Saving Jack
Description: Saving Jack is a first-person account of a man's experience with breast cancer, a disease normally associated with women. In a tale of challenge and adversity, Jack Willis relates his personal experience, from first feeling a pea-sized nodule in his breast to being diagnosed, from mastectomy and chemotherapy treatments to positive prognosis. And in telling candidly of his struggles, he conveys his renewed appreciation of life." "While there is no shortage of books devoted to helping women with breast cancer, this is the first to address the apprehensions faced by men who contract the disease. As he describes the physical and emotional roller coaster on which he suddenly found himself, Willis shares with readers - especially other new cancer victims - some of the things he and his family didn't know about cancer when he was diagnosed. And he tells how this ordeal transformed his loved ones' lives overnight through a succession of biopsies, hospitals, and cancer units.
