Editorial Review:
Cancer touches nearly everyone, whether firsthand or through the life of a loved one. Counselor and teacher Yvonne Ortega discovered this when she was diagnosed with breast cancer and began her journey to recovery. In Hope for the Journey through Cancer, she shares with readers her personal triumphs and setbacks with humor and refreshing candor, always reminding us of God's desire to meet us exactly where we are. These sixty devotions are divided into sections--diagnosis, surgery, treatment, and recovery--each incorporating Scripture into daily life. Ortega's attention to even the most basic hopes and fears that a cancer patient faces each day offers encouragement that can come only from one who has been there herself.

Rating:  - A great book for anyone going through cancer...
I really don't feel worthy reviewing this book because I do not have cancer nor do I have a family member that has cancer, but I realize I am a minority.

Rating: - Support for Breast Cancer Survivors
I was diagnosed with breast cancer in February 2007, had a lumpectory and radiation. I read "Hope for the Journey Through Cancer" and felt that it was so supportive to me and would help countless women. I am now purchasing copies to place in care packages that are being given to women newly diagnosed with breast cancer by a local Breast Cancer support group. I hope that it blesses them as much as it has blessed me.
Rating: - Tears and Triumphs
Hope for the Journey through Cancer is a book that should be in everyone's personal library with extra copies at hand. It's an invaluable gift for those facing this disease, or those traveling this ( or any other) painful journey with a loved one or friend. There are no clichés here, just inspiring reality. Real fear, real tears, real depression, real wrestling with truth and decision-making, real nightmares describe a real battle against cancer and the emotional pitfalls that accompany it. ...

Rating: - Tender and Tenacious!
As a Christian lay counselor, I am both eager to find resources for the hurting people I minister to, and cautious that what I share with them will be biblically sound and helpful. Yvonne has met both tests with this precious invitation to share her journey. Her tenderness is evident as she honestly reveals the raw emotions and physical challenges she experienced . . . her tenacity to hold on to God in trust and surrender also shines through.
I have already shared this book with many, and I ... Read More
