520 An Emmy Award-winning writer and activist describes the
harrowing years she spent in early adulthood fighting
leukemia and how she learned to live again while forging
connections with other survivors of profound illness and
suffering.
520 A few weeks shy of her twenty-third birthday, Jaouad
received a diagnosis of leukemia, with a 35 percent chance
of survival. She would spend much of the next four years
in a hospital bed, fighting for her life and chronicling
the saga in a column for The New York Times. After
countless rounds of chemo, a clinical trial, and a bone
marrow transplant she learned that a cure is not where the
work of healing ends; it's where it begins. How could she
reclaim what had been lost? Jaouad embarked on a 100-day,
15,000-mile road trip across the country. This is her
inspiring exploration of what it means to begin again. --
