This review is from: Against the Odds: The True Story of Michele, a Cancer Survivor (Paperback)

If you have a child with cancer, this book is a must-read. It is the story of Michelle, who had a recurrent Wilm's tumor. My son also had the same cancer twice, but almost 30 years later! It was an inspiration to me to realize that if Michelle could make it 30 years ago, my son can make it with all the new treatments that are available today! Thank you to the Nolan family for opening up their lives and sharing this story.
