"To explain to a 3 and 1-year-old about a cancer diagnosis is just, it's impossible, and it's something that I didn't want to scare them about," Lund said."I wanted to try to be open with them about it but also teach it on their level.""I was hiking in the Grand Canyon, or I ate a lot of ice cream, and that's why I'm really sick," she said."Not super truthful, but in a way that they can understand and not be scared about my cancer diagnosis.
Through both the diagnosis and the book, it's all been part of a mental shift in how she's living each day. "You just don't take anything for granted anymore. So you're definitely more in the moment. You're wanting to experience as much as possible because you don't know if tomorrow is handed to you," she said.
