Celebration of Healing

A Celebration of Healing is an art book, a book of stories bringing encouragement and confidence to those impacted by breast cancer and other serious illness.  It is neither a cancer “how to” guide nor a Hallmark card – rather a book giving permission to laugh, to cry, rage and to know one is not alone.  The twenty-one paintings and narratives build bridges between the physical and emotional needs of patients, families, friends and the medical community. They become a part of the healing. 

 

A Celebration of Healing includes a wide range of breast cancer experiences and demographics. Reader after reader, including those with different kinds of cancer, have commented I wish I’d had this book when diagnosed.  These are my stories, my stories!  Others have suggested A stack of Celebration should be in every doctor’s waiting room.
