After Annabelle Gurwitch received an out-of-the-blue diagnosis of Stage 4 lung cancer, an existential dread set in. Precision medicine offered a temporary reprieve–but instead of turning into a cancer warrior, Annabelle declared herself a cancer slacker. Her motto: no runs, no ribbons, no religion.
The End Of My Life Is Killing Me is more than a memoir; it is a hilarious and deeply contemplative look at mortality, defying expectations, and the unexpected life-saving path of being a “cancer slacker.” Annabelle Gurwitch invites readers to an honest perspective on life with disease, inequities in care, and a lesson on finding and embracing the remarkable in the ordinary.
