Di Malayo Sa Bituka [Filipino]

By Marito Cases Tabbada

"Di Malayo sa Bituka" is a raw, honest, and deeply human memoir of a man unexpectedly thrown into a battle for his life after being diagnosed with stage 4 colon cancer. With no dramatic declarations of victory and no fairy-tale endings, this book offers something far more powerful: truth.

From the sterile halls of hospitals to the quiet grief of solo moments, from the physical toll of chemotherapy to the decision to start running-literally and figuratively-despite the odds, the author invites readers into a journey not just of survival, but of persistence.

Told in a voice both vulnerable and quietly defiant, this is a story of pain, resilience, and the choice to keep living fully, even when the prognosis offers no guarantees. It's a memoir for anyone who has faced the impossible and kept going anyway.

Not a story of cure. A story of courage.
