Journey Through the Storm: A Faith Walk Through Cancer

While many approach cancer with insecurity and apprehension, Suzanne Tucker confronted it with faith. Instead of cowering in despair after her breast-cancer diagnosis, Suzanne immediately began baring her daily struggles and victories as she posted online entries through CaringBridge, a nonprofit website with a private venue for patients to detail their experiences. Suzanne recorded it all: her trepidations, her conversations with God about her struggles, her anxieties as she approached chemotherapy, her honest questions about her future, and her joyous celebration at being deemed cancer free. Her amazingly transparent journal entries ranged from recipes for sugar-free apple pie to medical information to profound spiritual truths as an unfailing God revealed Himself through her breast-cancer journey. Her testimony-a delightful blend of insight, spiritual maturity, and even humor-became so powerful that the total number of visits to her site exceeded 6,000.

Journey through the Storm preserves Suzanne's posts as well as the comforting, uplifting replies of visitors to her site.This volume, one Christian's pathway through a dark vale, provides invaluable helps to share with others progressing through cancer or through any oflife's rough spots.
