Opis

High school sweethearts Audrey and Irwin Greenblatt expect their retirement years to be full of joy and excitement as they explore their love affair with their adopted home of New York City. Travel, Broadway shows, and fine food are all on the menu. A tragic disease is not.

When Irwin was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, a disease that claims 80 percent of its victims within a year of diagnosis, their worldview shifts immediately into fight mode.

Becoming caregiver and nurse, Audrey, with grace and humor, documents every day of Irwin's fight for survival from experimental surgery to chemo to suspicious lymph nodes to blood transfusions and shingles and exhausting trips back and forth to the hospital.

"Lucky Journey "chronicles the Greenblatts' positive outlook during a time of extreme crisis, sharing ways others can do the same.
