Book Info for One Day at a Time: My Journey with Cancer–
“In August 2011, my world shattered when I heard those three ugly words that no one wants to hear–‘You have cancer’. The journey that followed has been one of tears, joy, pain, and triumph. As I reflect on the lessons I learned, one stands out above the rest: It all starts with one breath, one moment, one day at a time. Life is challenging. Everyone experiences trials and sorrow. But we can rise above them as we embrace hope, love, and faith in God. This book follows Desirae and her family as they journey through the land of breast cancer. Compiled from journals and blog entries, we see a glimpse into what life is like for one Christian family as they try to take on this challenge one day at a time.
