Description
A heartwarming memoir of a family that refused to give up
When twenty-two-year-old Susan Stachler was diagnosed with cancer, her mother, Laura, was struck by déjà vu: the same illness that took her sister's life was threatening to take her daughter's too. Heartbroken but steadfast, Laura pledged to help Susan through the worst of her treatments. When they discovered that Laura's homemade ginger cookies soothed the side effects of Susan's chemo, the mother-daughter duo soon found themselves opening Susansnaps and sharing their gourmet gingersnaps with the world.
Told with admirable grace and infinite hope, The Cookie Cure is about more than baked goods and cancer--it's about fighting for your life and for your dreams.

Reviews
"Susan and Laura Stachler's story is as heartwarming as a plate of warm cookies. More than a cancer survival story, this is the beautiful tale of two tough cookies who built a successful business on grit, determination, and love. I was rooting for them both, and you will too." -- Teresa Rhyne, #1 New York Times bestselling author
"This deeply heartfelt and moving memoir recounts how the Stachlers' darkest days ended in the triumph of building a successful business, each woman with her truest friend and ally by her side. Their memoir is a testament to the bond between mothers and daughters, and a reminder that there is always hope." -- Booklist - STARRED review
