Book Bag: ‘Instasick’ by Lisa Zacks; ‘Maven Reaches Mars’ by Jane McPhetres Johnson
Instasick by Lisa Zacks
A little over five years ago, Lisa Zacks of Williamsburg was leading a perfectly normal life. She was 34 years old, working and married, in good health, a regular exerciser; she and her husband, Matt, had a 10-year-old son, Dylan, they both doted on.
But her whole world was about to change. In early February 2016, Zacks was diagnosed with Hodgkin’s lymphoma, a cancer of the lymphatic system.
But right now Zacks has beaten back her cancer, and though she says there are still days when she feels anxiety and fear that it could return, she also finds renewed joy in life and an appreciation for basic things that she might previously have taken for granted.
