She was given most likely three months to live and had to undergo 12 months of the most enduring and intense treatment regime to have some sort of chance at life. Through her horrific adversity she found hope and healing through writing, she is raw and real when it comes to the truth of cancer on the individual and the others that surround them. A young girl of feeling self conscious, lack of purpose, materialism and taking many things for granted her cancer diagnosis flipped her world upside down. It changed her as a person forever but for a good reason. Her determination inspired many, she wanted to share her personal story with the world in hopes people will understand, relate and be more aware of the real issues and stigma’s that surround cancer in todays society. She found through the power of her mind and within herself that she serves a purpose and that she can recover even when the odds were so against her. Maddy Ritchie is a #1 international best selling author of “She Will Always Carry On”. Maddy writes about the good and the bad days of her experience, how to cope with such grief and uncertainty, relationships, and how to look at your adversity positively and the power of the mind! Maddy is an inspirational and engaging Speaker on overcoming extreme adversities. Her openness with her personal life, what she faces everyday and her passion about making a change in the world is one that stands out from the crowd. She talks openly about her pain and devastation the cancer left on her body, the lack of funding and inequality certain cancers face today, and that even through horrific times we all can make it through by determination and the mind.

Book excerpt: "How do I deal with this fear?" You've just learned that you have cancer. Once the shock wears off, your new reality sets in. The fear is overwhelming. You're reminded over and over again that you need to have a positive attitude. You put on a brave face and try to think positively. But, fearing the worst, it's nearly impossible. It Begins with Belief challenges the idea that you must simply think positively and offers a more practical approach to dealing with your fear. This book will: * Provide a step-by-step roadmap to overcoming your fear. * Address difficult questions such as, "If all I can think about is dying, isn't that what will happen?" and "How can I be optimistic when I'm consumed by uncertainty?" * Help you get to the root of your fear by exploring your beliefs about cancer, healing, and love. * Show you how to challenge your fear-based beliefs and create new, empowering beliefs based on fact. * Prove this truth: If your body creates cancer, it can heal cancer, too! It's not about thinking positively. It's about believing positively! Sound impossible? This book will show you how. "With Jill's intelligence, compassion, and medical knowledge, she was the perfect survivor mentor. She has taken the stories and insights and written a factual, but uplifting book that will help cancer survivors and caregivers, alike." Kristy Zane, American Cancer Society, Reach to Recovery Coordinator A word from the Author: When you hear the words, "You have cancer," it's normal to feel afraid. Faced with a serious illness, fear represents your very strong instinct to survive. However, if you don't consciously address your fear, it can create feelings of deep hopelessness. Feeling hopeless is extremely painful. I know this because I have been in those shoes. Eleven years ago, I was diagnosed with an aggressive recurrence of breast cancer. More than anything else--the chemo, the side effects, and the loss of my breasts and hair--my greatest struggle was dealing with the fear. When you are very scared and convinced that things "don't look good," the idea of overcoming your fear may seem impossible. My mission is to show you that it absolutely can be done. Whether you follow the guidance in my book, It Begins with Belief, or reach out for one-on-one coaching, I am confident that I can help you. I will guide you through a practical, step-by-step process that will change what you believe is possible with real facts and actions. Together, we will create new experiences, beliefs, and expectations that will give you real hope. Remember, it's not about thinking positively. It's about the power of believing positively! About the Author: Jill earned her doctorate in chiropractic from Palmer College of Chiropractic-West and her board certification in family practice from the University of California, Davis-FNP/PA Program. Jill's greatest passion is showing her patients how to take control and find real hope, even when faced with a life-threatening diagnosis. She has had the pleasure of helping many people through her medical practice, and as a volunteer for the American Cancer Society's Reach to Recovery program, a support program for women who are newly diagnosed with breast cancer. Jill currently devotes her time to coaching cancer survivors using the principles of It Begins with Belief. Please visit Jill at http://jillringer.com.

Book excerpt: “Brilliant, rich...breathtakingly honest and sometimes very funny.” —Anne Lamott “I loved this book.” —Glennon Doyle “Extraordinary.” —Caroline Leavitt “Observant and warm...the finest company.”—Kelly Corrigan “A beautiful sucker punch, like life.“ —Ron Fournier “Subtle, powerful, and hypnotic...” — Martin Cruz Smith What happens when we can no longer pretend that the ground underfoot is bedrock and the sky above predictable? All Janine Urbaniak Reid ever wanted was for everyone she loved to be okay so she might relax and maybe be happy. Her life strategy was simple: do everything right. This included trying to be the perfect mother to her three kids so they would never experience the kind of pain she pretended not to feel growing up. What she didn’t expect was the chaos of an out-of-control life that begins when her young son’s hand begins to shake. The Opposite of Certainty is the story of Janine’s reluctant journey beyond easy answers and platitudes. She searches for a source of strength bigger than her circumstances, only to have her circumstances become even thornier with her own crisis. Drawn deeply and against her will into herself, and into the eternal questions we all ask, she discovers hidden reserves of strength, humor, and a no-matter-what faith that looks nothing like she thought it would. Beautifully written and deeply hopeful, Janine shows us how we can come through impossible times transformed and yet more ourselves than we’ve ever allowed ourselves to be.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thousands of people have cancer. Thousands of people are fighting it. Thousands more are living with it. Author Janice Mock is just one of those thousands. But in Not All Bad Comes to Harm You, Mock shares her story to help others find new insight, strength, inspiration, and self-awareness. It all started in February 2011 when fifty-one-year-old Mock discovered a small lump in her neck. She was diagnosed with stage four ovarian cancer, and treatment began. In this memoir, Mock narrates her journey, experiences, and thoughts beginning with a life-threatening cancer diagnosis to recovery and beyond. She discusses details of how she changed her focus from victim to survivor, to pursuing life rather than succumbing to death, and why she thought it was a good idea to freeze her head to forty degrees below zero. Grown from the tiny beginnings of a blog intended to communicate medical updates with family and friends, Not All Bad Comes to Harm You tells Mocks storyfrom the joys and travails of the bumpy cancer road to evolving thoughts about living beyond her illness.

Fabianna was a new mother and a wife who felt no longer in control of her life. Cancer had the wheel and wasn’t letting go. Fabianna Marie was searching for a book about breast cancer that wasn’t full of medical jargon that scared the crap out of her. She wanted a book that would help her cope with everyday life. The last eleven years of battling cancer have been a journey during which she has learned how to live each day with love, laughter, and honesty. Fabianna hopes that sharing her story can be that resource for others she didn’t have.

Book excerpt: The self-published sensation and UK bestseller that has helped thousands touched by cancer. “I have cancer. Cancer does not have me.” Sophie Sabbage was forty-eight years old, happily married, and mother to a four-year-old daughter when she was diagnosed with late-stage lung cancer. Since that shocking diagnosis, she has been on a remarkable journey of healing and renewal that has reshaped her life—for the better. The Cancer Whisperer chronicles Sophie’s extraordinary relationship with cancer and the very effective methods she has used for dealing with her fear, anger, denial, and grief. The Brené Brown of cancer, Sophie empowers readers to reject the traditional adversarial relationship with cancer by teaching us how to listen to it; how to be healed by it as well as how to seek to cure it; and how to be emotionally free even when we are physically curtailed. Beautifully and poignantly written, The Cancer Whisperer encourages cancer patients to: • Direct their own treatment while preserving their personhood in a system that tends to see them as patients more than people. • Engage with fear, anger, and grief in healthy and healing ways instead of toughing it out, trying to be falsely positive, or collapsing into despair. • Radically shift from being a cancer victim to a cancer listener—fostering an understanding of cancer as a symptom of other underlying causes and engaging with whatever changes it calls on them to make. As authentic as it is revolutionary, The Cancer Whisperer calls for an end to “the war on cancer” and the start of a more transformative dialogue with the disease.

Book excerpt: 'Part memoir, part advice, all inspiration' A practical manual for those who've been told 'You're going to die'. What do you do, when the diagnosis is cancer, and you're told 'we'll do what we can, but most likely, you're going to die, possibly within a year'? That's the situation that Tony Dehn faced, shortly after turning 54. This book chronicles his experiences in dealing with that diagnosis, and provides insight and information for others facing that same situation. Seven years later (at the time of publishing) Tony is still surviving, still dealing with it, with the assistance of his wife Sally, and his family. From the moment that the doctors told him that 'you could be dead in a year', determination set in - not to deny the reality of it, but to learn as much as possible, and to do whatever it took to maximise the life he had left. Whilst there were practical limitations and adjustments to be made to ways of living, to dreams and expectations, and 'Daily Life' demanded to continue, even while every part of it was turned on its head, and the threat of despair lurked at every turn, Tony chose not to let that despair win. Together with Sally, Tony tells a tale which catalogues their actions and reactions, emotions, philosophies, and psychologies... and the practical measures they've taken, which are important for any person facing cancer or supporting someone battling cancer. The deepest value here is in illustrating the stark realities of facing premature death with a unique outlook - an outlook without any emphasis or pretence of bravery, and to show that the greatest weapon available against this desperation is attitude - not stated, but demonstrated. What shows through in this account, however, is the display of human spirit which underlies this gift, this legacy. There is not a shred of 'give-up' anywhere in these pages: there is anger, confusion, frustration, resolution, absolution, but at no point is there submission. If you, or someone close to you, has received the dreaded cancer diagnosis, or if you are facing death from some other 'incurable' cause, then this book will bring you to laughter, and to tears, but it will also provide you with practical guidance on the essential matters which need to be dealt with, and give you some tools to help you face whatever comes with equanimity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Stage IV cancer survivor reflects on treatment and recovery in this inspiring memoir that reveals the biases of the healthcare system—and the power of community. New Year's Eve 2020 was supposed to be a turning point to better days for twenty-nine-year-old Katie Coleman. Instead, she found herself in the ER processing the earth-shattering news of a stage IV cancer diagnosis, one that had come after years of being assured she was "too young for cancer” and a repeated misdiagnosis of anxiety. Too Young for Cancer tells the story of Katie’s journey from diagnosis with an ultrarare cancer through treatment, recovery, and a life-altering shift in perspective. Katie starts her journey shy, timid, and frightened of an intimidating medical world, but as she learns how to advocate for herself, she faces her own mortality with bravery and finds herself at top cancer institutions arguing her case for a radical and high-risk surgery that could change her life forever. With support from her husband, innovative doctors, and a diverse community of cancer survivors, Katie finds her life’s purpose to advocate not only for herself but also for others who are fighting just as hard for their lives. Too Young for Cancer highlights the absolute best and worst in healthcare and uncovers the silver linings and beauty of humanity filling the space in between.
