Culled from the author’s years of knowing, comforting,
supporting, and treating cancer patients, Debra Jarvis' book
is a heartfelt ode to both her own experiences with cancer —
both as a chaplain in a cancer clinic, and as a cancer
patient herself — and to those who share them. Exploring
both the spiritual and personal aspects of cancer, as well
as the social and cultural views of health, disease, life,
and death, Jarvis's account speaks to the uncertainties,
fears, and overall process inherent in dealing with the
disease. She writes with great honesty, humor, and wisdom,
and the overall effect is one that both charms and moves the
reader.
