Anyone facing cancer, or any life threatening illness, will benefit from this clear, concise, tenderly written book. Delia was a medical doctor, wife, mother and teacher with a six year old son when she was diagnosed with a rare form of cancer and given two years to live. She lived for twelve more years, long enough to see her son graduate from high school. Written by her close friend and colleague, Dr. Catherine Held, Delia's story is woven through a narrative that offers readers insight into what allowed Delia to survive beyond all expectations. It offers lessons learned from Delia about living with cancer and terminal illness. Most of all it offers practical tips and techniques that can help increase our own capacity for self-healing and navigating the medical system.
