The CMMRD book: a mismatch memoir and guide
No Customer Reviews
"A humane and helpful navigation of a difficult subject for a difficult journey... This book is a non-medical person's true north guide through Lynch syndrome and CMMRD."
- Lynn Dunne, CEO of Bowel Research UK "CMMRD may be rare, but everyone I know has met someone who has it." While on average people with CMMRD get their first cancer diagnosis at just 7.5 years old, Sam Alexandra Rose is beating the odds in her mid-thirties. But it comes at a price, with three cancer experiences and a whole lot of fear and trauma to sort through. Part memoir, part guide and with a little poetry thrown in, this book illustrates what it's like to live with a rare genetic condition and significantly increased cancer risk. This is a book of denial, hope and eventual acceptance, ideal for families wanting to know more about a CMMRD diagnosis and for healthcare professionals looking to better understand the patient experience.
