This book documents my journey from diagnosis to the final "all clear" 17 months later. The writing is taken from journal entries I made at the time. The book was first published in 1999 and this new edition has 20 additional pages titled "Reflections: Ten Years Later." In these pages I share some insights gained and some tips on staying healthy. Endorsements: "We have all had our valleys to walk through - sometimes alone, sometimes alongside another. In The Valley of Cancer I was brought face to face with the physical reality of life's dips and swerves and the heart wrenching cries that we often feel no one hears. Angelina stepped into my life shortly after I lost my mother to cancer. Her tender, piercing and clarifying words of poetry became music to my bruised heart. She writes from personal ex- perience - yes - but also from a great love for humanity." Donna Dawson, Auhor of Christian suspense novels. "The medical profession often overlooks the important emotional and spiritual dimensions of a life-threatening disease. Angelina takes the reader far past her physical suffering to experience the soul-changing struggles, heartache, and rewards of her valley. The physical, emotional, and spiritual dimensions of over- coming cancer - Angelina brilliantly intertwines all three in this very moving and intimate book." Brad Burke, MD. Author of the book series: An MD Examines Readers Say:"It ranks as the best (most helpful) book on cancer Ihave read. Thank you profoundly for sharing your story." “What a comfort your book is. I am so eager to share it with other patients.” “You gave me words for the feelings I couldn’t express.” “You touched me in places I didn’t know exist.” “I pick up your book again and again and each time I am blessed and encouraged.” "The honesty and directness are incredibly moving. A wonderful gift for cancer patients." |
