THE WORST BEST YEAR
THE WORST BEST YEAR
Told from two perspectives, this profoundly moving memoir tells the intertwining stories of 15-year-old Sebastian and his mother, Natalie, as they confront the unyielding grasp of cancer.
Natalie is no stranger to this disease; she battled the same cancer, Hodgkin lymphoma, eight years earlier. Despite her obstacle through chemotherapy and radiation, Natalie’s unwavering love for Sebastian quells moments of debilitating fear for her son as he meets his own cancer obstacles.
Sebastian gives an honest, intimate and at times humorous glimpse into his courageous outlook on the treatment, and on life. Intertwined with his story is Natalie’s, one of fierce determination to protect and support her son, exposing the true and raw effects of cancer on the entire family. And once it is over, life goes back to normal ... but what is ‘normal’?
This memoir will leave readers in awe of the human spirit, the power of love and a family’s extraordinary resilience.
HOPE - STRENGTH - PERSPECTIVE
About the Authors
About the Authors
Natalie:
Natalie is a first-time author, motivated by a deep passion for raising awareness about a cause close to her heart. With a background in administration and the hospitality industry, she never considered herself a writer. However, she was compelled to share her journey, not as an individual, but as a mother, to inspire others facing similar challenges. Their book, 'The Worst Best Year', co-authored with her son, is a labour of love and a testament to their bond's unique strength and resilience. Through their distinct perspectives, they aim to offer support and encouragement to those who may be struggling.
Sebastian:
At just 17 years old, Sebastian Khoury is a passionate academic and cancer survivor who channels his experiences into his work. After a challenging battle with Hodgkin lymphoma, which he bravely fought at the age of 15, Sebastian has emerged not only as a resilient individual but as a voice for those navigating the complexities of illness and recovery.
Sebastian’s writing explores themes of hope, strength, and perspective in the transformative power of storytelling. He draws from his own journey to inspire others facing similar challenges.
Sebastian's debut memoir, 'The Worst Best Year,' co-authored with his mother, recounts his experiences and reflects his insights on strength and resilience in adversity. His unique voice and unwavering spirit aim to encourage and empower readers to find strength in their own narratives.
