Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Though the end of your life may be near, it doesn't mean you have to stop living After being diagnosed in her early thirties with terminal breast cancer, Heather McManamy felt like her life was crumbling. Her "normal" vanished—and was replaced with multiple surgeries and dozens of chemo treatments that could briefly extend her life, but would not prevent her inevitable death. With an effervescent spirit and a new perspective, Heather started to live each day as if it were her last. She learned to soak in the moment, appreciate the beauty around her, and celebrate her blessings. She also pondered her daughter's future journey without her mother—and gracefully prepared for it. Heather began to write greeting cards to Brianna. Cards for her first day of school, her sixteenth birthday, her wedding day. Cards for when things were going right and when they were going wrong. Cards for when Brianna would need her mother—whether in five years or in fifty years—and Heather wouldn't be able to be there for her. Cards for Brianna is the story of one mother's powerful love for her young daughter and Heather's unmatched experiences, laced with laughter and charm, are a reminder to never take a single day for granted.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Lessons from Joan, Eric R. Kingson tells how his late wife’s strength, warmth, humor, and love—and those of many people they met along the way—helped extend life and make it worth living. It is about the fear, hope, and intensity of their lives during the thirty-two months that followed Joan's cancer diagnosis and how Joan and her husband and children maintained their family life during this time. It is about some of the funny, moving and courageous things that happened along the way. And it is about what they did to access compassionate, state-of-the-art care, including aggressive interventions that provided hope and improved the quality of Joan's life. Lessons from Joan is not intended as a "how-to" book, but within its pages readers will find lessons and practical advice about how to deal with unexpected life-threatening illnesses.

Book excerpt: When your days are numbered by cancer people ask why you would spend time writing a book instead of relishing in family moments. It's because this is the book I needed. It is so easy for your mind to be filled with anger and fear after receiving a diagnosis like terminal cancer. I needed spiritually uplifting books that gave me insight on how to live with cancer, how to be okay with the disease and most importantly, how to embrace this time as an opportunity from God. I hope this book offers you the encouragement you need and opens your eyes to God's workings and miracles that hide within the darkest moments of your life.

"Living Cancer Free" is an auto-biographical story by 15-year cancer survivor, Sara Quiriconi, Live Free Warrior. Self-proclaimed the modern day Holden Caulfield with a cancer twist, Quiriconi cites her history and real-life "cancerous" struggles with anorexia, bulimia, alcohol addiction, lymphoma cancer, divorce, PTSD, unfulfilling jobs, and more. This true story is not just for someone experiencing an actual diagnosis, but rather anyone seeking the light within their own darkness, or "cancers".Divided into the three sections, Part 1 describes Quiriconi's life B.C. (before cancer). Part 2 recaps her discovery of purpose, love and living free A.D. (after cancer's death). Part 3 Workbook with exercises and tools to Living a "Cancer-Free" life, from the lessons and experiences shared in Part 1 and 2 of the novel.This book will transform anyone who reads it, to live life to its fullest, like a warrior, and empowers readers to embrace the big C: CHOICE."If you have cancer: this book is for you.If you have a friend going through cancer: this book is for you.If you don't have cancer, keep it that way: this book is for you.If you feel stuck, in any area of your life, and looking for change: this book is for you."Get it? You don't need to have cancer to read this book, or to gain positive, life-changing use out of it How is that so? Even though I live a healthier lifestyle now, and living free of the various cancers that plagued my life (mentally, physically and emotionally), I wasn't very healthy in my approach to food, my mindset or my lifestyle for a good chuck on my life from 14 years old on.This book aims to illuminate, insight and inspire its readers to awaken to the life they can choose to live. Because "while we cannot always pick the hand of cards we've been dealt, we certainly can choose how we play them."-- "Living Cancer Free" The Workbook Introduction, by Sara Quiriconi

In this brilliant and inspiring graphic memoir, she documents through comic illustration and short personal essays what it means to live with the disease. She confronts with heartbreaking honesty the crises of identity that cancer brings: a lifelong vegetarian, Teva agrees to use experimental drugs that have been tested on animals. She struggles to reconcile her long-term goals with an uncertain future, balancing the innate sadness of cancer with everyday acts of hope and wonder. She also examines those quiet moments of helplessness and loving with her husband, her family, and her friends, while they all adjust to the new normal. Ultimately, In-Between Days is redemptive and uplifting, reminding each one of us of how beautiful life is, and what a gift.

Book excerpt: THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER! "I had the choice to come back ... or not. I chose to return when I realized that 'heaven' is a state, not a place" In this truly inspirational memoir, Anita Moorjani relates how, after fighting cancer for almost four years, her body began shutting down—overwhelmed by the malignant cells spreading throughout her system. As her organs failed, she entered into an extraordinary near-death experience where she realized her inherent worth . . . and the actual cause of her disease. Upon regaining consciousness, Anita found that her condition had improved so rapidly that she was released from the hospital within weeks—without a trace of cancer in her body! Within this enhanced e-book, Anita recounts—in words and on video—stories of her childhood in Hong Kong, her challenge to establish her career and find true love, as well as how she eventually ended up in that hospital bed where she defied all medical knowledge. In "Dying to Be Me," Anita Freely shares all she has learned about illness, healing, fear, "being love," and the true magnificence of each and every human being!
