Nimesh P. Nagarsheth
I loved this book, both as an ovarian cancer survivor and a music lover. Having heard both Dr. Nagarsheth’s lecture and the performance of the NED rock band at the annual Ovarian Cancer National Alliance conference in July, I was very eager to follow up by reading his book. He approaches his writing from the perspectives of both a gynecologic oncologist and a musician – what a unique combination! The book motivated me to return to my piano playing, something I had let go since my diagnosis. He writes from the perspective of a doctor and an artist: He “gets” it and is able to synthesize his facts, thoughts, and feelings in a way that makes sense to me. It is a very readable, engaging book, patient-oriented, and filled with love, hope, and dedication to his patients. I highly recommend it and have purchased it for both my local gynecologic support groups.
