The Dog Lived (and So Will I)
"Funny, smart, uplifting, and fun, The Dog Lived (and So Will I) reminds us that animals are among our best teachers, our most powerful healers, and our most steadfast friends. Teresa Rhyne vowed to get things right this time around: new boyfriend, new house, new dog, maybe even new job. But shortly after she adopted Seamus, a totally incorrigible beagle, vets told Teresa that he had a malignant tumor and less than a year to live. She forged ahead with survival, battling a deadly disease, fighting for doctors she needed, and baring her heart for a seemingly star–crossed relationship. As Rhyne and her boyfriend dealt with Seamus’ surgery, chemotherapy, and behavior issues—he had become a spoiled brat—Rhyne discovered a lump of her own. This breezy, heartfelt, and funny memoir walks the reader through all of the emotional and medical stages of cancer, both canine and human, making an awful situation infinitely readable and hopeful. This unforgettable story of an irrepressible beagle, a tough lawyer and her unlikely boyfriend will make you cry a little and laugh a lot. "This poignant and fast-moving memoir of Teresa and Seamus -- both definitely Type A personalities -- is proof that even a hard-charging lawyer is no match for a big-hearted beagle. "This encouraging tale of finding love and hope in unexpected places is full of small yet valuable life lessons that any animal-lover would appreciate." "This book does a great thing--it shows us how to make room in our lives for disease and then to get on with the important business at hand--falling madly in love and spoiling a beloved dog rotten. "This is a wonderful memoir allowing the reader to experience the highs and lows of both author Teresa Rhyne's and beagle Seamus' cancer battle. ".
Reviews
"At times laugh-out-loud funny, at times emotional, and all the time heartwarming, The Dog Lived (and so will I) is the happier side of Marley and Me. The title gives away the ending, but it won't stop you from wanting to journey along with Teresa, Chris, and Seamus as they navigate through the landscape of cancer and delicate relationships to form a new family of three."
"This book is amazing!"
"Teresa's honesty and humor as she described several very difficult situations in her life made the book nearly impossible to put down."
"I'm not sure what I thought the book was about but I definitely didn't think it was about cancer. This is a book that deserves to be read by all."
"With that said I was easily drawn into the story initially simply because it involved dogs, but fell in love with this book because of the resilience, love and inspiration found not only in Seamus but within the owner (author/Teresa) too. I found that part especially heart warming and further solidifying for me the bond between dog and owner by way of all of the unspoken words that crosses between the two species."
"Not that I will ever sign up for what you went through, but knowing that the dog lived, and you did too, would definitely give me hope if I did encounter it around me somewhere."
"Excellent book, very well written, loved her boyfriend Chris, loved Teresa & Seamus."

The Emperor of All Maladies: A Biography of Cancer
Winner of the Pulitzer Prize, and now a documentary from Ken Burns on PBS, The Emperor of All Maladies is a magnificent, profoundly humane “biography” of cancer—from its first documented appearances thousands of years ago through the epic battles in the twentieth century to cure, control, and conquer it to a radical new understanding of its essence. Mukherjee's profound compassion--for cancer patients, their families, as well as the oncologists who, all too often, can offer little hope--makes this book a very human history of an elusive and complicated disease. From the first chemotherapy developed from textile dyes to the possibilities emerging from our understanding of cancer cells, Mukherjee shapes a massive amount of history into a coherent story with a roller-coaster trajectory: the discovery of a new treatment--surgery, radiation, chemotherapy--followed by the notion that if a little is good, more must be better, ending in disfiguring radical mastectomy and multidrug chemo so toxic the treatment ended up being almost worse than the disease.
Reviews
"I asked myself was there something I had done in my past that was going to deprive me seeing my two sons grow up into happy young men and dads. You double check all your insurances are up to date and update a well to make sure my wife does not have any hassles with the tax authorities. The battle against cancer was waged by intrepid individuals, and this book explains the war so far. It outlines the causes of cancer, whether it is a virus, bacteria, induced by smoking or chemicals, or just our own body playing up and turning on itself."
"This is a complex, difficult subject rendered accessible and interesting to any reasonably intelligent layperson. And should you ever find yourself or a loved one diagnosed with cancer, I would definitely read this book first, simply because it will provide you with a broad, overarching framework of understanding that will allow you to make a far better sense of everything else that follows."
"This is one the best books I have ever read!"
"But the excellent research and writing make it hard to put down."
"Dr. Mukherjee's books are an absolute must read."
"The author (and the narrator) draw you in right away by beginning the first of many anecdotes; the story of a patient newly diagnosed with a form of cancer. Using the stories of the people involved- researchers, scientists, physicians, patients, and others- Dr. Mukherjee takes you through the beginnings of cancer research and treatment, right up to today's genomic revelations about cancer. The stories can be heartbreaking but are never maudlin; you can feel the desperation of parents whose children have leukemia, and patients who have exhausted every treatment available and fiercely fight on anyway."
