Living With Cancer

Receiving a diagnosis of cancer can create chaos. As a result of the diagnosis, many enter a world of surgeries, chemotherapies, and radiation therapies. Many fear death, regardless of how successful the treatment. And fear anger, and confusion affect not only the person living with cancer, but also family members and friends. Melody Kee Smith and her husband Richard Smith know firsthand about the ups and downs of living with recurrent cancer. They have composed meditations that include brief prayers and the invitation to write or think through issues, such as being frustrated with health care, building support systems, and building a sense of the sacred in one’s life. This book will uplift people living with cancer and their families and friends.
