Stephen has had a rather frantic 2016. Diagnosed early with an aggressive form of prostate cancer, he found himself entering a battle that had tragically beaten most of his relatives before him. Undeterred to give up despite being caught off-guard however, his decision from the very beginning was to fight like nobody has ever fought before, facing his failing health head-on and finding humour in the most unlikely of situations.
The Topic of Cancer chronicles the incredibly heart-warming and side-splittingly funny real life tale of Stephen’s battle, as he attempts to come to terms with his condition and ultimately fight it out to the other side. Shooting from the hip and telling it exactly as it is, Stephen chronicles his experience with being diagnosed and dealing with constant medical advisors while still trying to enjoy his life to the full. Unafraid to be frank about the ins-and-outs of living with the disease, The Topic of Cancer uniquely and unashamedly details an experience that many men have dangerously ignored for years.
Stephen’s charming sense of humour and astonishing optimism has allowed him to persevere through even his darkest moments, an uplifting approach he’d love to see increase the ability to be able to talk more openly about cancer in the future. By generously donating the proceeds of this work to charity and attempting to spread awareness on one of the most dangerous forms of cancer for men currently in the UK, Stephen is one step closer to seeing this dream become a reality.
With little written about the personal experiences of those suffering with prostate cancer, The Topic of Cancer endeavours to provide a relatable account that anyone suffering, directly or indirectly, can take solace and laugh along with!
