Spiritual
Wisdom From Cancer Survivors
A new book offers support to cancer patients from those who have
been there.
By Cecile S. Holmes
Almost 30
years after being diagnosed with cancer, Anne Shaw Turnage sees
her own life as living proof that "grace keeps you going."
Her personal experience led to a new book with the same title.
Co-authored
with her husband, the Rev. Mac N. Turnage, the book testifies
to the truth that cancer often propels people on a spiritual trek.
While steep, treacherous, and difficult, that path need not be
a hike one makes alone.
"Grace
Keeps You Going: Spiritual Wisdom From Cancer Survivors"
(Westminster John Knox Press, $12.95) recounts the pain and joy,
fear and wisdom, uncertainty and assuredness encountered by survivors
of cancer. The stories, often ironic and funny, are a panacea
for the hard moments when people with cancer and their families
struggle with the disease.
