Introducing “The Butterfly Sings — After the Diagnosis, Medullary Thyroid Cancer Memoirs, Volume 2,” and Re-Introducing Volume 1

Covers of After the Diagnosis and The Butterfly Sings.

Volume One of this inspiring book about coping with a rare cancer has been joined by an all-new Volume 2, “The Butterfly Sings.”

The first book in 2015 has sold thousands of copies and includes 84 stories from 66 Meddie authors—Meddie is what survivors of medullary thyroid cancer call themselves.

Volume 2, available in September, includes 93 new stories and poems from 73 Meddies, plus dozens of pieces of artwork and photos by Meddies.

The subjects in both books are unique and are mostly about the emotional, psychological, and spiritual growth of those living with a rare cancer.

The authors bring help, hope, humor, sadness, warmth, wisdom, and understanding, for anyone in a cancer situation, and for their loved ones, as well as for medical professionals caring for people with cancer. Read their stories and fill your heart.

Both masterpiece books are now available on ThyCa and Amazon. The books are available in hardback, paperback, and Kindle editions.

Thanks to a generous donation of paperback books, the complete purchase price of “The Butterfly Sings” ($29.95 for the paperback edition), when ordered directly from ThyCa, will support ThyCa’s medullary thyroid cancer research grants. 

In addition, thanks to the authors’ wonderful generosity, all royalties from both of these books will be used to support ThyCa’s medullary thyroid cancer research grants.
