Book Description

May 11, 2004

A Journey through Cancer is the personal story of a woman doctor and minister's experience with breast cancer. From diagnosis through treatment, she chronicles her experience of navigating through the medical system--and the sometimes bewildering array of alternative therapies that are available. Everything that she had learned in ten years of medical practice was put to the test.

From preparing for surgery to practical tips for "getting through chemo," this book contains a wealth of real-world experience for any cancer patient or family member. And from the perspective of a minister, the book explores the emotional and spiritual challenges that come with a diagnosis of cancer. Neroli Duffy has written a guidebook for anyone wanting to integrate spiritual, alternative and conventional therapies in the treatment of cancer.


Editorial Reviews

From the Author

The statistics say that one in four Americans at one time in their life will be faced with cancer. Breast cancer will affect one in eight women. I never expected to be one of them.

I was a forty-four-year-old medical doctor turned minister when I was diagnosed with breast cancer on January 25, 1999. I have never been one to remember dates, but this is one I have not forgotten. It was a date that was to change my life in ways that I could never imagine.

In the years since the diagnosis, I have experienced and learned so much. This book is born out of a desire to share what I have learned throughout this growth process. It contains specific keys that not only apply to breast cancer or cancer in general but which can help anyone who desires to find healing. I have chosen to call this book "A Journey through Cancer" because for me it has truly been a personal journey in healing.

5.0 out of 5 stars Practical and Inspiring, September 15, 2008
This review is from: A Journey through Cancer: A Woman Doctor's Personal Experience with Breast Cancer (Paperback)
I have given this book to many people who are dealing with cancer. It offers practical, yet spiritual advice for those who are facing many choices about treatment. It has helped me be more compassionate and able to listen to the journey of friends who are faced with life's challenges in all ways--spiritual, mental, emotional and physical.
