HOPE in the Face of Cancer

In a world where cancer diagnoses are rising and the healthcare system can feel overwhelming, the need for human connection has never been more urgent. With nearly 2 million new cases expected in the U.S. this year, those facing cancer aren’t just searching for medical answers—they’re searching for hope. Hope in the Face of Cancer arrives at this critical moment, offering more than just stories; it offers proof that survivorship is possible.

Celebrating 35 years of service, CanCare is excited to release this powerful collection of 55 firsthand accounts from survivors, caregivers, and healthcare professionals—ensuring that no one has to walk this path alone.

Written with deep empathy by Darcie Wells, a cancer caregiver and CEO of CanCare, alongside entrepreneur and ABC's Secret Millionaire James Malinchak, this book is a lifeline for those navigating the fear and uncertainty of cancer. These stories don’t just speak of survival—they shine with resilience, courage, and the undeniable power of love and support. Contributors like Rosie Carrabba, John L. Nau III, Dr. Esmaeil Porsa, Donna Lewis, and Rod Larson share their deeply personal journeys, reminding us that even in life’s darkest moments, hope can be found.

As part of our 35th anniversary celebration, CanCare is committed to placing this book in the hands of 35,000 newly diagnosed cancer patients and their families—giving them comfort when they need it most. This effort, made possible through the generosity of individuals, companies, and foundations, is more than a campaign; it’s a movement to ensure that no one, no matter where they are on their cancer journey, ever feels alone.

Hope in the Face of Cancer is available in paperback and e-book format from Amazon. All proceeds will support CanCare's mission of providing a survivor by the side of anyone facing cancer. Over the past 35 years, CanCare has impacted the lives of more than 1 million cancer patients and their families.
