| Summary |
"When twenty-two-year-old Susan Stachler was diagnosed with cancer, her mother, Laura, was struck by déjà vu--the same illness that took her sister's life was now attacking her daughter. Heartbroken but steadfast, Laura pledged to help Susan through the worst of her treatments. When they discovered that Laura's homemade ginger cookies soothed the side effects of Susan's chemo, both mother and daughter were inspired to start a business. Now, with Susansnaps, the duo sells their cancer-fighting cookies across the country. Told with admirable grace and infinite hope, The Cookie Cure is about more than baked goods and cancer--it's about fighting for your life and for your dreams."-- Provided by publisher. |
