Jeannie Piekos, writer, poet and spokeswoman, found a way to navigate and share her cancer journey through essays and poetry. In Buoyancy, a memoir, she travels from the heart-breaking, life-threatening diagnosis through the treatment protocol with its side-effects and fallout, and onward into a transformed, unrecognizable self that yearns to find self-acceptance and possibly recovery. Buoyancy provides a lens into a private space that allows the reader to be witness to the loneliness, poignancy and universality of disease.
