Thirty-four stories, three postscripts, and one big message: Positively Altered is a call to action for every one of us to unapologetically live and love our own way no matter what challenges life brings.

Positively Altered is about how to find happiness in the rarest of places-for starters, at the bottom of a chemo bag. In a collection of raw, in-the-moment stories that come to life with self-deprecating humor and a hearty dose of reality, Cindy doesn't sugarcoat her journey any more than she bemoans her fate.

A roller coaster of both laugh-out-loud and tender moments about love, parenthood, friendship, and cancer, Cindy's message packs a punch and delivers an honest look at life and how adversity can positively alter it. From her "Fifty-One Things" list and duplex theory to her "Two-Martini Accident," Cindy's stories will be that nudge you've needed to see things more clearly and settle more confidently into the superhero that's you. So grab your cape and join Cindy on page 1.
