I Quit (eBook, ePUB)

Facing Cancer with Faith, Family & Friends

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This candid, funny account of coping with serious illness is a rallying cry for anyone facing a difficult situation. When she found herself diagnosed with brain cancer for the second time, Kristina Kotlus chose to quit on day one. But quitting didn't mean giving up. It meant a whole new lease on life. Rejecting the impulse to worry or try to control things she couldn't, resisting all the advice to "fight" and be a "warrior," she simply resolved to do what she could, admit she needed help (and lots of it), and put her faith in God. In this inspiring memoir, Kristina shares how she survived both diagnoses-with the support of her family, friends, and faith-in a relatable, funny way, from her original diagnosis to finding doctors to telling her kids (hint: make someone else do it). She shares openly and honestly, with just a touch of sarcasm and a heavy dose of humor and faith, and encourages readers to decide that it's time to stand up, wash the tears off their face, and keep going.
