“That Sh*t Called Cancer (The Not-So-Subtle-Art of WINNING Your Life Back)” is a book that shares the author’s intimate survival story after being diagnosed with metastatic breast cancer.  A modern tell-all of sorts, it is designed to be an inspirational read and self-help guide for those dealing with cancer, have gone through cancer, or are caring for someone who has been diagnosed.

Jaymee details her cancer discovery, treatment programs, and how it came back (and kept coming back!) over the last five years. She talks about the psychological, emotional, and spiritual toll of battling this horrible disease. Jaymee shares how she managed to continue living life despite the diagnosis and all its complications.

Jaymee Wins is a Filipina inspirational and lifestyle blogger and influencer, self-published author, motivational podcaster, and on-camera talent based in San Diego. She is a former TV and movie personality in the Philippines and a solo global traveler who has visited 25 countries and lived on four continents.

Jaymee shares her stories, experiences, and content on social media as “Jaymee Wins,” determined to inspire and help people, especially cancer survivors.
