A diagnosis. A recommendation to remove his prostate. And questions Alan Richards wanted answered before handing over the keys to his future.
My Cancer Journey tells the longer story: his unconventional choices, the medical professionals and testing he continued to rely on, the setbacks he could not ignore, and his positive outcome. His 1957 Chevy becomes a way to talk about paying attention to the gauges.
