The book: God Is Bigger Than Your Cancer publication date is set for February 15!
Cancer Book CoverNothing can be cooler than having a "What if.."  become a "There it is!".  On February 15th, my book, God is Bigger Than Your Cancer, will be published.  This book is the first in a series of God is Bigger.... books covering topics such as abuse, addiction, and grief.  To properly kick off this new adventure, I will have a new website www.Godisbiggerthan.com for endorsements, reviews and other information regarding the series.  Eric Robinson, my mind-bendingly marvelous web designer, will make his magic again.  More about Eric at www.illmorning.com.  I'll update you when the new site is available.

Looking Back 
BookDavid C. Pratt Cancer Center and the Wellness Community sponsored a fantastic overnight retreat opportunity for women to relax, refresh and renew their body and spirit.  "Rest and Rejuvenate:  A Retreat for Women Cancer Survivors who have completed treatment" was all that was hoped for and more.  The women gained information, perspective and support from their fellow survivors. 
 
What an honor being asked to present Moving from Cancer Victim to Cancer Survivor.  The retreat was such a success that there is already talk of a second retreat in the spring of 2008!
