Broken Trails: Ambushed by Cancer (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781512135602)

The words of these two cancer survivors are uniquely crafted to the many vagaries of this daunting disease. Sara M. Slayton was treated for non-hodgkin's lymphoma (1988) and pancreatic cancer (2001). Paul D Heckman was treated for thyroid cancer (2007). Their experiences forced them to face personal fears, the painful and sometimes frightened reactions of friends and family, the need to trust in hope and medicine, and gave them the grace to carry on. "Broken Trails: Ambushed by Cancer" is the result of these experiences. The arts can play a major role in healing, and this powerful collection of essays, poems, quotes, and a two-act musical play capture the questions, concerns, and understandable fears many of us hold about this dreaded illness. There is help; there is hope.
