The Book of Hope, a collection of stories shared by northern cancer survivors, is published on Tuesday.
In a press release, Hotıì ts’eeda – a research support unit hosted by the Tłı̨chǫ Government – said the book was being released on Gwich’in Day to acknowledge the role played in its publication by Gwich’in cancer survivor Agnes Pascal.
Pascal was diagnosed with cancer in 2015. After finishing treatment in 2017, she started facilitating a cancer support group in Inuvik. She has spent years working on the book.
