People Cynthia encountered on her breast cancer journey profoundly changed her perspective on life. They were varied ages and came from different circumstances, but the common thread they had was the fear when hearing the word cancer. Often she was a reluctant participant during her walk, knowing she had no choice if she intended to win her battle. She encouraged others with her smile, positive attitude, words, and actions. Cynthia understands that within each of us is a fighting spirit, and hopefully, a recognition that we are not in total control of our lives; God is, and he will determine our passage from this world. Until then, we need to accept the difficulties that we encounter in our lives with dignity, grace, determination, and knowing that God is constantly by our side. With the incredible support and prayers of an army of compassionate people, and Gods grace and blessings, Cynthia is a breast cancer survivor today!

This journey was a continual walk of faith. I had believed in God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit even as a child. I had always prayed to God, asking to know him in a greater measure. However, trust in man had always been an issue for me after years of being hurt. Because of that distrust and insecurity, my heart had become hardened. I thought I did not need anyone—except God. My own life seemed to always be inferior and my last priority when compared to others. When I first discovered the lump, it was small. However, a few months later, it was massive. It was then I knew I could not fight this battle alone. During this journey, I would fight many battles with an enemy who was fighting to destroy me. There was a war within myself, trying to figure things out and spiritually what I believed the Bible said. I found out I was not alone. For when the enemy sought to destroy me, God had a better plan.

Cathy Suitor Riley decided to write this book during her treatments for bi-lateral breast cancer. It seemed to help to put her experiences on paper and she was hoping that her story would inspire and strengthen anyone that was going through any type of trial, not just breast cancer. It is obvious throughout this book that God was ever present during her journey and carried her when she couldn't carry herself. The faith that Cathy was taught during her childhood from the two Christian parents she was blessed with is what made all the difference in her life. She knows that without those teachings and lessons in faith she may have given up from the very first day of her diagnosis. Cathy had always said she didn't see how any woman could go through breast cancer because she would have to give up her hair and breasts, the two main things that make a woman feel feminine. It is obvious now that the way a woman gets through this is from the strength given to her by God. Only God can carry any of us through the trials we will face in this life, and there will always be trials as long as we live on this earth. It is this authors hope that this book will give you strength, hope, faith and the knowledge that your God is always with you and He is waiting for you to seek Him and depend on Him for everything. He is as close as our next breath and He is our very best friend. Always draw near to God and He will carry you through all things of this world.... May God bless you as you read and meditate on this book!

Retired after thirty-four years of teaching high school science, Ellen Washburn Gragg was enjoying her close-knit family and church community, traveling the world, quilting Life was good. Although she had no family history of breast cancer, no risk factors, and no warning, in 2006 she discovered her breast lump while traveling with the Friendship Force program in Japan, where the futon on which she and her husband slept made the lump more obvious and probably saved her life. She is now cancer-free. Ellen survived breast cancer by depending on both science and faith. As a scientist, she did extensive research, educating herself about the physiological process of treating her disease. As a Christian, she stepped into the embrace of her faith, her family, and her loving friends to sustain and nurture herself as she healed. By bringing both these arteries into the heart of her challenge, she was able to proceed confidently and wisely on her path to becoming cancer-free. In Lady of Hope, Ellen makes the science accessible and her faith inspirational. She shares not only her personal journey but specific information and coping strategies, from eating gingersnaps to relieve nausea to the Bible verses that have given her comfort and peace. Ellen's message keeps echoing through the book: be faithful and be informed. Cancer patients and caregivers will discover how to empower themselves mentally and spiritually, and learn why, at the end of her treatments, Ellen still says, "Life is good!"
