Oh sh!t, I've got bowel cancer: Part Two: In the fog of chemotherapy

Part two of David “Dar”’s powerful and deeply personal cancer diary continues the story that began in Shi!t I’ve Got Bowel Cancer: Part One. While the first book chronicled the shock of diagnosis, surgery and early recovery, this second instalment takes readers into the difficult and often disorientating world of chemotherapy.Written as a series of honest diary entries, this book captures the physical, emotional and psychological reality of living through cancer treatment. From the first day of chemotherapy to the relentless cycle of side effects, fear, hope and exhaustion, David documents what it truly feels like to navigate life “in the fog” of treatment. Along the way, he reflects on the moments of humour, resilience and unexpected perspective that help him keep moving forward.More than a personal story, this book offers reassurance to anyone facing cancer – whether as a patient, family member or friend. David’s candid reflections show that the journey through cancer is rarely straightforward, but that sharing experiences can bring connection, understanding and strength during the most difficult moments.Inside, readers will encounter:Real diary entries documenting the chemotherapy experienceHonest reflections on fear, uncertainty and mental healthThe realities of treatment side effects and recoveryMoments of humour and humanity amid difficult circumstancesPractical reflections, resources and research insights for those navigating cancerAt a time when one in two people will be affected by cancer during their lifetime, Shi!t I’ve Got Bowel Cancer: Part Two – In the Fog of Chemotherapy offers an unfiltered, compassionate account of what life inside treatment really looks like.
