À propos de ce produit

Product Information

In the spring of 2000, stand-up comedian Robert Schimmel was diagnosed with stage III non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, and soon the fire of his white-hot career started to fizzle. But Schimmel never lost his sense of humor, his searing honesty, and most of all, his passion to make people laugh. Indeed, it was his basic need to entertain--even if the only people around him were suffering from cancer and the room he was playing was the Mayo Clinic infusion center--that carried him through his ordeal. Alternately laugh-out-loud funny and deeply moving, Cancer on 5 a Day is a stirring account of how one man's face-off with a deadly disease helped him better understand himself, and ultimately changed his life.

The book was shipped loose with 3 other books in a plastic bag which allowed the books to move and possibly experience some edge curling on the books. I would have preferred that the top and bottom of the books had been secured with some cardboard or bubble wrap to minimize potential warping and damage during shipping.

  • Greatest Book I've read thus far

    Robert Schimmel has and always will be one of my most favorite comedians of all time. With his sexual humor and his positive outlook on living life with cancer, he never fails to disappoint. This book is very well written and very good. Had me laughing, and thinking about how I take certain things for granted. Life is not all about having materialistic things, as he tells in his tell-all book. One minute you might be on top of the world and the next minute, you might have nothing at all. I can relate to that, some what. Thats why I think This book was amazing. You never really stop to think how lucky you are to have the things you have before you are about to die. To make a long story (or Review) short, this book is awesome. The only thing bad about it is, that it's too short. close to 200 ...

  • Great as a gift for any Schimmel or comedy fan

    Got it for my brother as a birthday gift and he loves it!

  • Humor is really the best medicine!!!

    I bought this book for my sister who is undergoing chemo treatment for non-hodgkins lymphoma-I read it while sitting with her during a treatment. "It was and is exactly what she needed". Awesome book-she is now giving it to a friend undergoing treatment. Humor is an excellent way to deal with anything, especially cancer!
