"This is the book I wish I had found when I was diagnosed and going through treatment." - Jan Lucas-Grimm Jan Lucas-Grimm was diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukemia in 2005. After undergoing traditional chemotherapy, she went into remission for a short time, then relapsed and underwent a bone marrow transplant in 2006. A straighforward, down to earth description of diagnosis and treatment, this is a realistic portrayal with equal measures of humor and hope, despair and fear. "My Beautiful Leukemia" unravels the intricate fabric of the illness, and reveals the very bare, human fibers that remain.

"Certain people come into our world as teachers: how they respond, grieve, cope, share, and survive when tragedy strikes. Jan is a teacher. Although her story isn't a template for wrong or right, it is a beautiful lesson of how family and community, coupled with art and love, unite together to give hope to the suffering. It's Jan's indomitable strength that ultimately offers healing to all of our spirits." --Matthew D. Jackson, poet/author of "Mind My Chaos"
