Cancer Don’t Care: A Memoir

Michelle Sandlin was living a healthy, clean life. For the past two years, she worked out six days a week for one to two hours per day. She didn’t drink. She didn’t smoke. She didn’t do drugs. She looked great. She felt great. And she was in the best shape of her life. But guess what? Cancer don’t care! That’s when she found a lump in her right breast. Days later, she was diagnosed with breast cancer.

Unknowingly, Michelle had been preparing her body for the fight of her life. And fight she did. After sixteen rounds of chemo, a double mastectomy, reconstruction surgeries, and the preemptive removal of her ovaries and fallopian tubes, she is now CANCER-FREE!

In this memoir, Michelle shares her raw, emotional, and at times, humorous journey. This book is her way of processing her thoughts, feelings, and insights about what happened, what she went through, and what it’s like to be on the other side. It’s about overcoming adversity by channeling your inner strength, maintaining a positive attitude, requiring the same of those around you, and fighting your way through. It’s about self-motivation, acceptance, and inspiration on the road to healing and inner peace.
