A Good Day Anyway: My Poetic Journal of Cancer Survival

Anyone affected by cancer will receive a feeling of hope from A GOOD DAY ANYWAY by Dave Massey. He started writing poems during his second battle with cancer as a gift for his daughter, and found a unique way to share his encouraging story of survival. This inspiring poetic journal is sure to have a positive impact on others who are looking for their miracle. “Dave Massey’s poems recall the pathos, fear and deep appreciation of life that cancer brings. He conveys a lighthearted optimism without trivializing the circumstances. The moments he describes will be recognized by all of us who see or experience any severe illness.” --- Jayne Gurtler, MD, FACP Oncology and Internal Medicine “ A GOOD DAY ANYWAY is true and sincere. It should be a staple in every Oncology clinic, office, and center. Cancer survivors need an honest, personal representation from someone who has been there. Dave nailed it here. Bravo!” --- Christian McEvoy President of the Challenge America Foundation

5A Good Day Anyway  May 18, 2009
This book is fantastic. A must for anyone who is suffering from cancer or has a loved one that is. I even caught myself immediately reading it all over again after I finished the last page. It really puts things into perspective as a parent of a child with cancer. I have not stopped talking about it and sharing this book with others as well. It was such an inspiring book, that I contacted Dave Massey from his site to thank him for writing this book.
The short poems were both comical and heart-warming. This was the perfect book for me to read while waiting for my daughter's treatments each day & have shared it with others I've met at Vanderbilt Hospital in Nashville.
I strongly suggest having the whole family read it if someone in your family is suffering from cancer as it helped in the healing process. This book is also a great gesture to give someone that you know with cancer as a gift.

5Great book for my dad  Apr 25, 2008
I got this book for my dad who I just found out has cancer. He was told to get some reading material to bring for when he gets chemo- but something with short stories because your attention span is shorter. He has really enjoyed it.

5Inspirational journey  Oct 29, 2007
"A Good Day Anyway" is an inspirational journey about the importance of maintaining a possitive attitude when a person is diagnosed with and goes through treatment for cancer. While I have been fortunate not to have had cancer, I have lived through my child having cancer. Her mother and I would have loved to have had this small but mighty book to help keep our spirits up while going through the process. We too believed that a possitive attitude was paramount to her survival and still do 24 years later as she celebrates her 30th birthday next month! What a great tool this book is. It is a must read for all persons who have been affected either directly or indirectly with cancer.

4Fun Read!!!!  Oct 06, 2007
This little book is so much fun, it makes it even better that I know one half of this amazing couple, but it truly does make light of a terrible disease, I have shared it with so many people since reading it. Being a health care provider I know this should be a staple bedside companion in any medical facility.

5Inspired  Oct 01, 2007
Dave Massey's inspired poetry reminds everybody that no matter how bad it gets it is better to make the best of it. His example of positive thinking is at the essence of the human spirit and what we can achieve when we've got our minds right. I would recommend this book to anyone going through cancer, but especially to everybody else, because there is no time for negative energy- it is a waste and a detriment to our society.
