He said the dreaded words, "I give you two years to live," and my heart froze in time.

“Thank you for this most amazing, inspiring book; it is a very treasured read. It made me do a lot of thinking and helped me come to terms with things in my life.” ~ Bernadette Longu, Readers’ Favorite Books Reviews (5 STARS)

“This memoir is a precious life lesson for me as it made me realize that a mother’s strength is unimaginable and that my legacy shouldn’t be about the trouble I caused but about the good I could do.” ~ Emma Megan, Readers’ Favorite Books Reviews (5 STARS)

“Two More Years is just a beautiful and emotional memoir.” ~ Rabia Tanveer, Readers’ Favorite Book Reviews (5 STARS)

I have four young kids. To not see them grow up, start their careers, get married… those thoughts seemed unfathomable. "I'm only in my 30s. You can fix this. Can't you?" I'd made so many plans.

"No. I'm sorry, Elisa. We can't."

My breath evaded me, like I already needed the ventilator—the damn life support. I wouldn't die in a car crash or some freak accident. Nope. I knew what would kill me; I just didn't know when it would happen.

The night I met Mike, an infamous bachelor, I couldn't imagine that years later I'd be battling for my life as he helped raise my four children. Yet, there we were. It was slow at first, but my view on life reverted to something it had been years before. It wasn't until I started modeling in hospital gowns, fiddling for terminal patients, and taking my kids on outlandish adventures that I discovered how to truly live again. But, despite handling so much with grace and trying to build a legacy for my family, could that reconcile the most devastating of diagnoses?

“Stilson could easily have written another one hundred pages in her memoir, and her readers would have savored every last word. Stilson’s book is thought-provoking, touching, heartfelt and inspiring.” ~ Katie Specht, Feathered Quill Book Reviews

EVOLVED PUBLISHING PRESENTS a most personal memoir of one courageous woman's battle with cancer, and her determination to make the most of whatever time she has left, including her powerful mission to help others facing a similar battle. [DRM-Free]

A River of Gratitude in a Continent of Pain

Reviewed in the United States on 17 May 2022

Verified Purchase

Stilson’s memoir, which enlightened me with regard to her journey with cancer, speaks to all of us who have ever struggled with health concerns that feel overwhelming at times. Some readers will bring to the book their own experiences of living with cancer. Others, like myself, will have lived with other diseases that are not terminal—as cancer may be—but that do test our ability to look for and find something good in all that happens to us.

“Two More Years,” with its many-colored thread of gratitude, offered me, as the reader, an insight into looking for and finding the good in every vicissitude of a journey with any illness that testes our metal.

The memoir had three main stories: (1) The ongoing ups and downs of the sometimes, it seems, galloping progress of stage 4 melanoma of the bones. (2) The experience of Stilson’s meeting many strangers who at first seem to have lives free of struggle and pain. But with fierce and humble honesty, the author shows us that she learns—through conversation, observation, or a sentence of pain whispered in the silence of recognition—that each person battles (as she does) some pain, loss, disease. (3) The discovery by Stilson of this commonality of loss and the gratitude that arises from feeling the oneness of communion with whomever she meets.

This book spoke to me, not because I have cancer, but because like Morrie in the bestseller “Tuesdays with Morrie” by Mitch Albom, I am old, and I am looking back and recognizing all for whom and for which I am grateful. Stilson is not old, she’s young to my eyes, but she, too, is living a life of gratitude in the midst of mystery. For me, she's another Morrie.

Inspiring and beautifully written.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 7 May 2022

Verified Purchase

Such a beautifully written, honest, inspiring and yet heartbreaking memoir. I live in a different country to this wonderful woman but by the end of the memoir I really wish I had someone like her in my life. Her personality, strength, perseverence and hope for the chance of a long life shine through on every page. I would recommend anyone to read this, and wish this beautiful lady many more years with her amazing family.

"Always More"

Reviewed in the United States on 21 January 2023

Verified Purchase

I have read EC Stilson's memoir twice, and both times it delivered a powerful punch. She is facing down Stage 4 melanoma with such humor, determination, and love for her family.
She has never lost sight of what other people around her are facing. Her fake tattoo read "Always More" meaning there is always more to people's stories than you might guess and there is always more to you.
I found her memoir similar to Tara Westover's, Educated. The challenges these young women have overcome are unbelievable, their spirits and perseverance so inspiring. Hoping more memoirs are forthcoming!
