Today is my 14-yr cancer-versary! Celebrating the gift of life today, moments when peace and joy surpass circumstances, and the chance to have shared my #picturebook THE GOODBYE CANCER GARDEN with those who needed it (now out of print after 10 yrs, illus by @KristiValiant). 💗🙏

"Cora finally gets the chance to be Mama's assistant chef. And of all the delicious Filipino dishes that dance through Cora's head, she and Mama decide to make pancit, her favorite noodle dish."

@DorinaGilmore @proncis When I took reference photos to draw Cora, my model’s dog kept getting in the photos, so I added him to the book to echo Cora’s feeling of being left out (she from cooking, he from playing). His name is Chuee!

How better to celebrate the 10-yr anniversary of THE GOODBYE CANCER GARDEN, by me & @KristiValiant, than with the surprise arrival of the Turkish paperback edition AND my first strawberry crop! (also...12 yrs cancer free💘) #bcsm #PictureBooks #kidlit @AlbertWhitman
