Chasing Normal: Balancing the ups and downs of life and cancer

By Jo Rothwell

Non-fiction. A memoir. Chasing Normal allows you to walk alongside a metastatic cancer diagnosis. You experience the everyday ups and downs and emotions that the author has encountered for over eleven years living with cancer. What do Ikea flat packs, Whistler's Mother, and mysterious comets each have in common with cancer? Well...everything and nothing at all. For Jo Rothwell, they have been the difference between living with metastatic cancer and simply living. Over eleven years ago, she was enrolled in the cancer classroom. Lessons learnt include; resilience, acceptance, purpose, distraction, adaptability, perspective and a master class in humour. But this book is not just about cancer. It is also deemed a love story. The love a mother has for her son. A story of hope. A story of how your purpose in life can give you the greatest strength and help you walk alongside the greatest challenges. Put simply, Jo refuses to let cancer define her, and so, to counteract cancer's chaos...she chases normal.'
