DescriptionLavern L. Johnson wrote Notes for My Friends during her second, and final, bout with breast cancer. With it she leaves a testimony on how to not just live with cancer, but also how face the struggles with dignity and strength. Johnson describes in clear, non-sentimental terms how she faced chemotherapy and radiation, how she told family and friends, and how she prepared for her own death.
