In Riding Shotgun (9780995839007) Don Kerr chronicles the five-year trek he and his young family took following his wife’s diagnosis with a rare and aggressive form of breast cancer in 2011. I

n this sometimes raw, always vulnerable and informative book, Kerr shares powerful insights along with practical advice and actionable tips for caregivers.

Described as “a book for men and the partners they care for”, Riding Shotgun will indeed prove valuable to every cancer patient caregiver. Riding shotgun (in the days of stage-coach travel the person seated next to the driver) on the cancer coach, while preferable to sitting in the driver's seat, is no easy feat for anyone. This is a tender, droll yet brutally honest summation of the daunting challenges facing the cancer caregiver while they deal with the daily demands of parenting, working and simply surviving one of life’s most difficult family situations: potentially catastrophic illness.

Written with clarity and simplicity, the book contains useful advice born of the five-year ordeal of Kerr and family that opens a window to the unspoken issues that many encounter while confronting the apparently impossible. Kerr also shows the reader how people can find beauty in the wreckage.
