A mother’s love is stronger than cancer.

And so is yours.

-Has your child or another loved one been diagnosed with cancer or a serious illness?

-Have you ever found yourself struggling to keep up hope as a caregiver?

-Have you been looking for ways to better navigate and be heard in the health-care system?

If you answered yes to any of these, then you are not alone on this journey.

Based on her own experiences of her family’s journey into the world of childhood cancer, Benedicte T. Nielsen shows how other parents and caregivers can find strength, hope, and resilience when faced with this most fearful disease.

As the inspirational story unfolds, parents and caregivers learn how to carefully advocate for the best decisions for their child while balancing ethical dilemmas. Nielsen’s book holds the keys to helping families, medical staff, and the world redefine a win-win situation by building a “dream team” around each patient and strengthening effective communication between all parties. Only then can people make the highest possible contribution toward a fulfilling health-care experience—even in the worst of times.

If you’re a parent or caregiver looking for a refuge of understanding and compassion during the trials of childhood cancer, then Marcus’s Story will provide the sanctuary you need.
