Words Woke Me – My Prostate Cancer Journey in Poetry (Paperback)

$29.95

Words Woke Me is a deeply personal collection of poetry by Steve Jones, written throughout his journey with prostate cancer. From diagnosis through treatment and into recovery, these poems capture the emotional, physical, and reflective stages of survivorship.

What began as late-night thoughts turned into a meaningful body of work. The title itself emerged during one of those early morning writing sessions — “some words woke me” — a phrase that symbolises both sleepless nights and moments of emotional awakening.

This honest and accessible collection offers connection, reassurance, and perspective for men navigating prostate cancer and for those who support them.
