Losing Wonder Woman: A Path to Healing
In a memoir about his wife Kermit Farmer recounts the twenty-year-long love story between a mere mortal and Dr. Linda Lee Farmer, a.k.a. the most badass woman on the planet. From countless attempts to woo a wife who seemed un-wooable to badly timed jokes, you will find yourself wiping your eyes and rolling with laughter.
More than just an oncologist, Linda was a devoted mother and passionate friend, whose intelligence, kindness, and (sometimes brutal) honesty touched the lives of thousands.
Witness Linda’s relentless pursuit to love and serve her patients until her last breath.
Through the lens of her husband, Linda’s story of sacrifice lives on to show that strength of spirit does not depend on strength of the body, and that even in the claws of cancer, love and humor can survive.

honest, intimate, beautiful
What a beautiful story, so honestly told, of Linda’s life. Kermit invites us into their lives with her practice, their growing family, and her final year.
What an intimate view of being a caregiver and surviving spouse.
Thank you for taking on the yoke to support patients and physicians with Care Paths.

Honest Love Story
This book was a very honest look at the stages of cancer in a relationship and the true selfless love of a doctor and her spouse. Added humor made this a page-turner!
