“It’s
Cancer”—Finding Help and Hope on the Road to Recovery was
recently released by Straight Street Books. There’s a great need for this book
because statistics state one out of every two men, and one out of every three
women, will hear those two words no one wants to hear. "It's cancer."
While statistics sound cold and clinical, this book
is not. Rather it is full of hope, encouragement, and helpful guidance.
I am delighted to have the author and cancer
survivor, Venita McCart, as a guest on my blog this week. Venita and I became
friends a few years ago and I’ve eagerly waited for her to write this book. Not
only does it offer help for those diagnosed with cancer, but it is enlightening
and beneficial for the rest of us to read.
In “It’s
Cancer”—, Venita shares her own experiences as well as those of others. The
back copy reads, “Come alongside patient
survivors as they successfully overcome the obstacles of weighing treatment
advice, managing caregivers, establishing attainable goals, realigning
expectations, and embracing a new normal during and after cancer. Grapple with
the tough questions about suffering, death, and heaven. Learn the value of
being your own advocate, accepting setbacks, choosing gratitude, and developing
a closer relationship with God.”
As the founder of Faith Force Cancer Support
Ministry in Illinois, Venita continues to validate the realities of cancer
while offering strategies for finding inner joy and peace. I’m delighted to
have her share with us today.
