Robert Apple Piombino's New Book "One Hell of a Toothache: A Cancer Survivor's Tale" is a Candid Reflection on the Author's Journey from Diagnosis to Recovery
Recent release "One Hell of a Toothache: A Cancer Survivor's Tale" from Page Publishing author Robert Apple Piombino is an engaging memoir of symptoms and surgery, perseverance, hope, and renewal.
JERSEY CITY, N.J., Sept. 10, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Robert Apple Piombino, a lifelong New Jersey resident who has retired from an active work life and now spends quality time at home with his dog, his pipe, and his slippers, has completed his book "One Hell of a Toothache: A Cancer Survivor's Tale": a clear-eyed account of the author's arduous path to recovery.
The author comes face-to-face with the medical establishment, finding strange unfamiliar words and procedures, resulting in new feelings and new ways to look at life. Sometimes cynical, sometimes whimsical, but always truthful and sobering. Without confusing medical terms, he describes the various modalities incorporated in our hospitals and the unique figures that perform their magic. Not to be left out are the special folks he runs into while getting treatment. Dickensian characters and the land of Oz witches come to mind whilst seeking sane treatment from some highly questionable medical practitioners, doctors yelling at him for asking questions, staff neglect over the most mundane things that take on super-relevance like the ever-disappearing tissue box. For further clarification, a few pages of the author's early life are included, and a bit about 9/11 seemed appropriate, along with a mere smidgen of a poetic verse from his vast poetic works available soon.
All royalties from the sale of this book will be donated to the Cancer Treatment Centers of America in memory of Emma Olan, a fearless warrior for life.
Published by New York City-based Page Publishing, Robert Apple Piombino's book is an engagingly written account of the author's journey through cancer treatment and a message of encouragement to others facing the same challenges.
