By the end of 1997, more than 1.3 million new cases of cancer will be diagnosed, and it is estimated that two of every three American families will at some time have at least one family member diagnosed with cancer. The current trend towards earlier discharge form acute care hospitals and an expected increase in home care may result in more adult children becoming involved in caring for a physically dependent parent. Furthermore, advances in cancer treatment have led to increased survivorship, which in turn has led to caregiving demands that many exist for several months to years. Family caregiving requires adjustments in daily schedules, imposes financial burdens, and causes the individual members to re-evaluate their relationships with the patient. The book is intended to raise awareness of the stresses evoked by a caregiving relationship.

Hurdles presents true episodes in the lives of my wife, a pediatrician; myself-the author-a chemical engineer; and of our four young children. Having survived World War II, we arrive in this country and achieve professional prominence and an enviable lifestyle. When, however, my wife's breast cyst turns malignant, I stumble, losing my business as well as sanity. I soon recover and muster my strength to help my children overcome the hurdles posed by their mother's illness and death. My intensely personal story addresses the scourge of women's breast cancer from a husband and father's viewpoints. The book offers a heartrending story of a family's distress and resilience, love and devotion, and the ultimate triumph of the human spirit. It should be of particular interest to the 200,000 women afflicted with the disease in the United States each year. About the Author Michael G. Kesler, Ph.D., is a graduate of MIT and NYU. Since his retirement in 2006, he has written of his experiences during World War II.

"The gastroenterologist said she'd found two cancers and, smiling cheerfully through a sedated haze, Will thanked her and beamed up at Faith wondering why she seemed so perturbed." Told he has advanced bowel cancer Will begins extensive chemotherapy. At the same time Faith discovers a major misappropriation of funds by a trusted colleague in the organization she directs. At first Will thinks the chemo isn't going to be too bad, but he's wrong. The side-effects are awful and not just physically but psychologically and emotionally. Faith's wrong, too, underestimating the stressful impact Will's chemo is going to have upon her at work and at home. Weary and dejected, feeling useless and lost in a chemo-fog preoccupied with survival, Will tires of telling Faith he's sorry. Forever anxious and exhausted, feeling as if she's being taken for granted and overwhelmed by work and caring for Will, Faith resents having to feel guilty. Inevitably misunderstandings develop and unresolved antagonisms once masked by youth, career and family resurface to push the relationship to the brink. When Will's treatment and Faith's employment end with a disturbing twist, they face an uncertain future. Was their faith in chemotherapy warranted? Will they survive The Chemo Affair?
