art and healing and their book.

 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.
