I am not a writer. I am a reader and a student of life’s challenges and life’s many lessons. My cancer battle (which started in the palate area of my throat even though I was a non-tobacco user), covered 9 years, 25 surgeries, and 16 days in a coma where I starred death in the face. My journey also included 1 year being unable to speak, 2 years being unable to eat (my nutrition came through a pec tube). I encountered surgery failure after surgery failure after surgery failure. My face was disfigured, and I had scars from my face down to my ankles. I spent a small fortune on doctors, surgeries and medical care. Yet through it all, I never lost my faith, never lost hope, never lost confidence in winning my battle.Through it all I learned many lessons. Lessons about who I was as a person, lessons about my faith, my determination and my values. I also learned lessons about fighting cancer. I learned that the cancer battle was about so much more than doctors, surgeries, radiation and chemo. I learned that cancer fights are also about mind, body and spirit. I tried to capture that in this book. I am also a 'Cancer Survivor', and my cancer journey was unique and took me to some unique places, practices and experiences. It was not a stay at home and take chemo type of journey. So, I also managed to tell my own story of cancer survival.My wife kept encouraging me to write this and after a lot of prayer I felt like God wanted me to share my message. I wrote this in hopes that it might help other people in their fight with this disease.
