The C Word

Love, laughter, loneliness - the struggle against cancer stirs the emotions in this poignant drama based on a true story. Lisa Lynch was 28 when first diagnosed with an aggressive, malignant tumour in her breast: not exactly at the top of her list of things to do before 30. Told with warmth and humour, The C-Word follows Lisa's journey, and the love and support she received from her devoted husband, Pete, and her family. Her only release is to write. What starts off as a blog seen by few steadily becomes a profound inspiration to many. Powerful and heartfelt, it is a no-holds-barred yet tender portrayal of the reality of living with cancer, based on Lisa's defiant words which in turn became the best-selling novel The C-Word. Equally, it is a story about the power of love.
