Description
Written as a 'prayer journal', Wendy shares her hard journey from initial symptoms to diagnosis of cancer, and through months of gruelling treatment. She describes the effect on her marriage and family life, as well as the physical, emotional and spiritual impact on her as an individual Christian. As Fiona Castle commented, "An honest daily account of real, often raw, emotions". This book contains many thought-provoking insights into relating to God through the hardest of times, as well as practical ideas for supporting those living with cancer and their families. As well as many deeply moving episodes, it is written with Wendy's trademark warmth and flashes of wry humour. The new edition brings her story right up to date, with the story of her diagnosis and treatment for breast cancer, unrelated to her first illness.
