The Cancer Letters is one mother?s unconventional, yet humorous attempt at parenting while suffering through chemotherapy treatments she?s hoping will save her life.Through a series of letters, she imparts her unique form of parental wisdom onto her teenage son hoping she can absently help him grow into an honest, responsible young man. She knows he?s going to fight. She knows he?s going to drink. She knows he?s going to get his heart broken. She knows he?s going to get in trouble... Will the son take her advice on the trials and tribulations of life and learn that sometimes parents are right whether he likes to admit it or not? Or will he ignore it like a typical teenage boy trying to come to life under his own terms?
