Publisher's Synopsis
I was about to open my own yoga studio when our then 3-year old son was diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia. Everything I had called life until then exploded and evaporated into thin air. But the destruction of what was before the diagnosis, became the creation of a new experience of existence. In a totally new way my inherent viability took over and filled me with all the love and presence I actively had searched for all of my life. My wish is that this book can be the encounter I longed for along the way. A living example that it is not only possible to survive, but that this ordeal comes with gifts that I never ever would like to be without today.

For any parent facing the impossible reality of their child's suffering and mortality, this book will bring comfort and a fresh uplifting perspective."-TALI LANDO, MD, Author of Hell and Back: Wife and Mother, Doctor and Patient, Dragon Slayer "We can easily see the devastation and havoc that cancer brings to patients, families, and loved ones. What we don't always see, not until close up, are the relationships that it tightens, the inner strength that it builds, the love that it deepens... the gifts. Anna Herslow Lind shows us optimism, pragmatism, and perspective on this disease."
