Its not about the bike

by Lance Armstrong When Lance Armstrong was informed that he had cancer the initial shock hadn’t hit him yet. He thought he might just lose his job and that’s it. It was only later that he really thought his job was also his life. Lance Armstrong’s cancer had spread aggressively to the rest of his body including some of major organs such as the lungs and brains. His chances of survival were lower than 10%; many people thought he was going to die. Lance Armstrong then went on one of the most rigorous forms of chemotherapy. While he lie in a hospital bed, his body being slowly destroyed, losing muscles, skin cells and white blood cells he wondered do the cancer cells die off, or does this diesease conquer Lance Armstrong? This book will show that even in your darkest hour if you have hope you will have a chance to survive. Reviewed by Michael K. of Year 9
