THIS WAS JUST WHAT A NEEDED HALFWAY THROUGH 6 MONTHS OF CHEMOTHERAPY. IT MAKES YOU REALIZE NO MATTER HOW ALONE YOU FEEL DURING THIS TIME YOU MUST BE THE ONE THAT DECIDES TO GET WELL AND SURROUND YOURSELF WITH A POSITIVE ATTITUDE.

Even though I do not have cancer, I find the theology and thought process of this caring man to be of the best quality I have encountered. John Robert McFarland knows who he is and whose he is and wants to share that with all readers. Each short chapter is enough food for thought to help one through a rough day, and through personal experience the Rev. McFarland has certainly helped me set new priorities and therefore I've helped others, hopefully. This book makes a wonderful gift when you are searching for a way to share your concern with others, and it's a "must have" for your library as well.

Starting with the Introduction, McFarland hits home with anyone suffering with any type of cancer. Everyone can relate to his thoughts and comical situations with dealing with this disease. This material is also wonderful for all humans who need to start "living" again.

This book, and the abridged version on audio tape, are insightful, inspiring, and even funny. As you read or listen to John Robert McFarland, you know that he has an insider's understanding and some wonderful words of wisdom for those of us who face that scarey journey called cancer. Read it and get a whole new perspective on cancer. You'll be glad you did. I sure was! Donna Forrester, RN Ret., D.Min., L.P.C., CFLE, in Greenville, SC
