On the Road to Surviving: Love, Loss, Faith, and Learning to Live Again (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798248208692)

Life can change in a single phone call.

When John Shaffer's wife, Lynn, was diagnosed with lung cancer, their world shifted overnight. What followed was a journey filled with hospital rooms, long drives, whispered prayers, unexpected hope, heartbreaking loss, and the long road of learning how to live again.

On the Road to Surviving is a deeply personal memoir about love, grief, faith, and resilience. Through honest storytelling, John shares the raw reality of caregiving, the heartbreak of loss, and the quiet courage required to rebuild life as a single father after tragedy.

This is not just a story about cancer.
It is a story about what happens after the fight.

It is about:

• Holding onto faith when life doesn't make sense

• Raising a child while navigating grief

• Finding purpose after loss

• Learning that moving forward doesn't mean leaving love behind

Written with vulnerability and hope, this book offers comfort to anyone who has experienced loss, walked beside someone battling illness, or wondered how to keep going when life looks nothing like the one they planned.

Because even after heartbreak, life continues.

And we are all still on the road to surviving.
