Publisher's Synopsis
I almost died in 2014. Hearing those deafening words - "it is stage 3" - tore me up. But I promised myself that if I made it to the five year remission mark and was still cancer free that I would make it count.
As a syndicated columnist for Authority Magazine and Thrive Global, I have interviewed nearly 175 cancer survivors from all walks of life. In this book, I share the true stories of 35 of those survivors and what they learned physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually from this very difficult experience which has forever shaped their worldview.
In I Survived Cancer and Here Is How I Did It the intention is to spread hope for second chances. That cancer is not a death sentence. There is life and healing after cancer. Picking up the broken pieces from a long-term illness is not an easy feat. The battle is often fought not in the realm of wishful thinking, but in the world of willful action.
"We have a choice, and that choice is for us to honor the pain, but not live by its shackles."
In this book, you'll be filled with insights:
- "Seek normalcy."
- "I knew that my pain had purpose."
- "Prepare to celebrate every single win."
- "Never stop learning. Research your disease."
- "It's not the load that breaks you down; it's the way you carry it."
