<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>When American photojournalist Nancy Borowick's (born 1985) parents Howie and Laurel were diagnosed with stage-four cancer and underwent simultaneous treatment, she did the only thing she knew how to do: she documented it. By turning the camera on her family's life during this most intimate time, Borowick learned a great deal about herself, family and relationships in general. Borowick's father died in 2013, and her mother followed 364 days later. The lessons she garnered from Howie and Laurel were plentiful: always call when the airplane lands, never pass on blueberry pie, and most importantly, family is love and love is family. <p/>"Though it is nothing she would have wished for, in a relatively short time Nancy Borowick became an expert in photographing death." --<i>The New York Times</i><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>[A] moving testament to a couple's unshakable love, and the strength of a family overcoming a painful loss.--David Morgan "CBS News"<br><br>Nancy Borowick bravely documents this deeply personal story of her parents' passion for life in the face of death. As both are diagnosed with stage 4 cancer, Nancy captures times of joy with family and friends and her parents' love for each other through to the end of their lives. This fearless portrayal serves to remind us that each breath is a gift and begs that we all remember to live our lives to the fullest.--Kelli R. Grant "Yahoo! News"<br><br>The Family Imprint, the book based on Nancy Borowick's photography essay Cancer Family Ongoing, is one of the most poignant personal stories I've seen. Borowick's personal moments with her family tell a story of hope, love of family and heartbreaking loss. It's clear that she photographed in part to deal with the pain of her reality, and that level of intimacy allows viewers to deal with their own painful realities through her experiences. Yet, her personal optimism is seen through humorous and touching moments. I've cried alongside countless others who see these pictures; I've smiled looking through these pictures. The depth of these images make them instantly relatable, regardless of personal experiences.--Elizabeth Johnson "CNN"<br>
