Can a book of cancer stories ever be positive? Uplifting? Now maybe you're sceptical. And if you are then it's my very great pleasure to say that you are wrong, big time.
Because this is a spectacularly positive book in so many ways even though the subject is not an easy one.
Kevin Donaghy has cancer. And over some time he's part written and curated this book essentially told by those who have been there or continue to be so.
Thirty-nine extraordinary glimpses into real life from cancer patients, young and old. No drama, no hype, just...life.
And royalties from the book, newly published, will go to Maggies - currently 24 centres across the country free to anyone with cancer and their families who walk through the door.
Kevin joined Mike for a quick look at just some of the stories in - Stories Of Cancer And Hope...

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
