The diagnosis of his sisters terminal cancer put David on the path to a journey of cycling 4,700 miles over 6 weeks across the US to meet and to talk with 15 people whose lives were affected by cancer, some themselves were patients, some caregivers, doctors, nurses, co-workers, friends and family members.

His book cycle of lives documents these stories and how we can be better prepared to have conversations with those affected with Cancer.

How it is sometimes easier to talk to a stranger without any emotional connection than to family members.

Also how there is no time limit, no due date and no use by date to deal with grief and relationships.
