Publisher's Synopsis
Elissa Kalver is not shy about sharing the reality of her terminal cancer diagnosis and the transformation it has brought to her understanding of what it means to really live a full life. For Elissa, survival alone is not enough. In We Got This, she describes how having cancer has broadened her definition of what it means to "win," urging us to reconsider our own conceptions of success and resilience.
Elissa openly explores topics such as chemo treatment, fertility preservation, what NOT to say to a cancer patient, caregivers as the "invisible patient," fear around death, parenting with cancer, and so much more. Through her experience and insights, Elissa aims to inspire us to live our most authentic life possible--and cancer is not a prerequisite.
