A Long Walk Home is Rachel Clark’s evocative and moving account of her treatment and experiences with health professionals in Britain and Australia while she was living with, and dying from, cancer. It includes an Epilogue by her twin sister Naomi Jefferies, and learning points for health professionals by John Hasler and David Pendleton.
Rachel is someone I never knew but I take with me everywhere I go. Rachel is my middle name after the author who happened to be a personal friend of my mum. Rachel is someone I never knew but this book gave me an insight into who she was and I am very proud to continue her legacy in the small way I can.
