The Cancer Cart

A note from Rachel:

Because nothing about cancer has time for toxic positivity. Rachel doesn’t need another “inspirational” coffee mug telling her to sparkle. She needs this book—The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck—a literary middle finger to all the saccharine nonsense people say when they don’t know what else to say. This book is like a reality check from that one brutally honest friend who tells you your hospital gown is hideous and then brings you snacks anyway. It reminds Rachel that she doesn’t have to “stay strong” for anyone. She can have a bad day. Or ten. She can give fewer f*cks about the stuff that doesn’t matter and save her energy for what does—like surviving. And snacks. This isn’t a guide to becoming a better person. It’s a permission slip to be a messy, tired, emotionally complicated human who’s still worthy of love and rest and the good couch blankets. Rachel needs this to help her laugh, rage, cry, and—most importantly—reclaim her own f*cks.
