(un)remarkable: How Cancer and Depression Intertwined our Stories of Grief and Hope

In "(un)remarkable: How Cancer and Depression Intertwined our Stories of Grief and Hope", Tennille Corbett and her daughter, Lydia, invite readers into their world, sharing the powerful and heart-wrenching journey of the tumultuous year of 2023. For each of them, it challenged their beliefs, rattled their sense of control, and forced them to confront life's uncertainties head-on. This unique dual-narrative unfolds as Tennille and Lydia reflect on the same events, documenting their differing experiences each month, and providing an intimate glimpse into their struggles and triumphs.

As Tennille, a middle-class working professional, battles stage four endometrial cancer, Lydia, on the brink of adulthood, copes with the complexities of high school, a recent breakup, and the gradual deterioration of her mental health. The Corbett family, including husband Shaynne, and their son, weathers the storm, finding solace in unexpected places, particularly their family dog, Remy.

The ups and downs of 2023 bring both heartbreak and hope, with Lydia securing the lead in her high school musical and Tennille grappling with her identity amidst medical treatments and the shocking revelation of hereditary Lynch Syndrome for both herself and Lydia. The family faces financial turmoil with Shaynne's job loss, adding another layer of adversity to their already challenging year.

As Tennille and Lydia navigate their respective struggles, the memoir becomes a testament to their resilience, love, and unwavering bond. The duo work together to unravel the silos they inadvertently created, sharing their story to inspire others facing similar challenges. Tennille's desire to showcase the possibility of a new life alongside a terminal cancer diagnosis and Lydia's quest to connect with fellow young caregivers create a narrative that resonates with readers on a deeply emotional level.

"(un)remarkable" is not just a memoir; it's a beacon of hope, a celebration of family, and a testament to the human spirit's ability to triumph over adversity. Tennille and Lydia's collaboration offers readers a poignant and inspiring exploration of the transformative power of love, resilience, and the unbreakable ties that bind us. This gripping memoir leaves the reader eagerly anticipating the next chapter in the Corbett family's journey beyond 2023.
