But Schimmel never lost his sense of humor, his searing honesty, and most of all, his passion to make people laugh. Indeed, it was his basic need to entertain--even if the only people around him were suffering from cancer and the room he was playing was the Mayo Clinic infusion center--that carried him through his ordeal.
Alternately laugh-out-loud funny and deeply moving, "Cancer on $5 a Day" is a stirring account of how one man's face-off with a deadly disease helped him better understand himself, and ultimately changed his life.
