Lifesaving Gratitude: How Gratitude Helped Me Beat Stage IV Cancer

Bunny Terry · 2024
🎙 Narrated by Bunny Terry (author-narrated)
74/100
👍 Worth It

Penny found this one genuinely moving — Bunny Terry tells her stage IV cancer story with real toughness and humor, and her ongoing advocacy work backs up that this isn't just a one-off memoir. Author-narrated, which gives it the kind of authenticity this genre needs; just know going in it's heavy medical territory, though never gratuitous. Worth the listen if you or someone you love is walking through illness.

✦ Penny’s Take — this is The Review Group’s own editorial assessment. Penny’s analytical review line researched this book from real sources and scored it across the lenses shown below. It’s an honest first-party read — not a page-by-page personal one. The gold ✓ Penny Tested mark is reserved for books Penny reads cover to cover herself.
⚠ Parent note — our reviewers flagged: Frank discussion of serious illness, medical procedures, and mortality — a content heads-up rather than a disqualifier.. We still scored it 74; these are context for your family, not an automatic skip.

🎙 Narration: good Author-narrated by Bunny Terry; first-person delivery of her own lived experience typically reads as authentic, though no independent reviews confirm technical polish.
