John Mallory was seventeen years old. For all that was thrown at
him in his daily battle to please peers, parents, and teachers,
life was not so bad. Except, of course, for that lingering cough
and dragged out feeling that seemed to linger. But cancer? The mere
thought of it, along with the sudden coming to terms with ones' own
mortality, forced his family to re-examine their lives in an effort
to understand where this latest journey would take them.
Kevin Mallory and his wife Nancy live in Portland, Maine with
their son John. They have been married for twenty-two years. As
middle class Americans whose priorities included steering down the
road to retirement and wondering how to pay for college, they were
blindsided by the events this narrative hopes to put into
perspective. What started out as note taking for reference when
talking to doctors, soon evolved into personal comments, unfolding
feelings, and eventually thoughts of writing a book.
This no-holds-barred look at family life under the gun doesn't
try to break new ground; rather it chooses to examine the
overwhelming issues facing an American teenage cancer patient
through the eyes of his parents.
