Majosta: The Right Side of the Fairway – Golf Wisdom for Living with Cancer

Discover a Golf Inspired Journey Through Life and Health

Majosta presents The Right Side of the Fairway, a memoir that uses golf to illuminate how one person faces a life changing diagnosis with candor and humor. Doug deGrood, a devoted golfer and advertising executive, shares a compelling story that began in 2015 when age 50 brought a stage-1 bladder cancer diagnosis that quickly progressed to stage 4. The narrative blends on course imagery with everyday resilience, inviting readers to explore a path that balances ambition with acceptance.

Structured around 18 short chapters, the book offers bite sized reflections that you can digest in the time it takes to play nine holes. The voice is direct, often humorous, and always human, turning difficult moments into learning opportunities without pretending they are simple fixes.

It is a thoughtful read that respects the gravity of health journeys while offering a sense of possibility rather than a guarantee.
