I found that I could relate to it in numerous ways, given the trials my family went through in the grief process.My favorite chapters were 14 and 15 because I didn't want them to end. The inspiration and motivation in John's writing keeps you hooked. I am ready for the second installment.Thank you John for the inspiration!

After reading this book, I could relate to the experiences that the author felt. A close family member of mine was diagnosed with cancer. This moment of her life had to be what I could only imagine a true nightmare. No one to understand your fear, pain or answer your questions on the disease. Where was this book 5 years ago when she needed it, I needed it. Thank you to the author that has created such a step by step book on not only how to deal with cancer but how to treat those that have it. Congratulations to the author for this creation. I highly recommend it to all that expect, know someone or is alive and kicking with cancer. Excellent motivation book. "It's all about me"...NAC

I have read and witnessed the authors experiences with his cancer. I am his son. The author John Sr. is incredibly humble in describing the pain and fear he felt during these years. However, by playing by the health rules, staying positive and not quitting in the game of life, those years of pain and fear have washed away by living on and experiencing a new found love of life. Within the book, I found that there was no thoughts of dilusions, feelings of divine intervention, or medical mysterys. Rather, a simple and down to earth way of keeping perspective and focused on the problem at hand. A step by step guide on how to deal with all factors of beating this monster called CANCER. It would appear that anyone, regardless of education level, income level, race, religion or state of residency can relate to this excellent book. I highly recommend this book due to its easy reading feeling and very insightful thoughts on living your life right this minute, whether you have cancer or not. Give this book a try, there is absolutely nothing to lose when fighting the monster except your life. Good job pop! Jr.
