The author brings to paper a new technique for developing a different style of writing. His novel examines the long and oftentimes tortuous journey through the depths of cancer treatment, from the pain of the disease to the many types of treatments available. Also, it offers a glimpse into a healthcare system in which the patient is often the sum of his insurance policy. As a result, their best practices and bedside manners frequently take a backseat to hospital politics and the financial bottom line. 'Visiting Hell's Gates: A Novel of Perseverance is nobly dedicated to all donors, ' stated New York Time Best Selling Author Ellen Tanner Marsh. And, went on to comment, 'For anyone who wishes to gain a better sense of what cancer patients experience when they receive their diagnosis and begin that long arduous journey down the road of living with and fighting cancer, this book is highly recommended.'
