The Cancer Cart

A note from Rachel:

Because cancer doesn’t cancel out joy—but it sure tries. And when you’re running low on energy, hope, and Wi-Fi bars in the clinic waiting room, you need something bite-sized and beautiful to remind you the world still spins... and occasionally winks at you. The Book of Delights is like carrying around a tiny choir that whispers reminders of how much wonder still exists, even when your body feels like a project under constant renovation. Ross Gay’s essays are short enough to read between appointments and sweet enough to stick with you long after. Rachel needs this because delight isn’t frivolous—it’s medicine. And because she deserves a pocket-sized rebellion against grief, stress, and beige hospital walls. This book is proof that even in hard seasons, there are still ordinary miracles worth noticing. Like the perfect peach. Or a stranger’s unexpected kindness. Or making it through another day. Let’s help her collect those.
