About this title

From Library Journal

McFarland, an ordained United Methodist and a cancer patient, writes a deeply personal and therefore universal series of meditative thoughts about various details of living with cancer, from diagnosis and surgery to baldness and healing. Throughout his various trials--spiritual, physical, emotional--there is hope, humor, and life and the paradox that he feels he did more living in the first month or so of cancer than in the preceding 50-plus years. Both for cancer patients and their families and friends, this book should provide encouragement to face the difficulties honestly while seeing beyond the immediate concerns at least a little. Those of all religious persuasions and of none can appreciate the issues of human meaning and identity the book raises. Highly recommended for all public and seminary libraries.
