In the book, cancer is cells growing wild, oncogenes are switches stuck 'on,' and three treatments are surgery, chemo, and radiation. But here, the first treatment is the bus fare to Imphal, the second is selling our 'thabal' paddy field for tests, and the third is waiting in a line so long I’ve taught the hospital gatekeeper’s child “Twinkle, Twinkle.” My echel says the book forgot the treatment called hope, which is the most expensive one.
