Reseña del libro "The General and Me: My Life with Rose Cabot (en Inglés)"
This book is a memoir of my life with Rose Cabot. At the time of this writing we have been married for forty years. When Rose was six months old, Rose and her brother Jack, were abandoned by their parents and spent the next four years in twenty foster homes before moving in with their aunt and uncle. Despite those early years, or possibly because of them, Rose grew up to be a wonderful, generous, and caring person. A real softie behind a very hard exterior. Rose is one of the funniest people you could meet. Sometimes she tries to be funny and is. Other times she tries to be funny and isn't. But often she is just a very funny person. Perhaps I should start by explaining the name of the book, "The General and Me" or, more precisely, how Rose became a General. No, she didn't serve in the military, although she came close to joining the Navy, I think. Rose first became a general in 2008 and became a four-star general in 2013. Rose became a general by fighting a war, actually two wars, on cancer. Thankfully Rose did not get cancer. I did. In 2008 I was diagnosed with extremely advanced prostate cancer and 2013 I developed very aggressive throat cancer. To win a war you need a general. Rose was that general. She made the tough decisions, fooled me for my own good, and kept the doctors and me in line. I just want to say that without Rose taking charge I may not be writing this book today. I can never repay Rose for what she did.
