CANCER! The big "C." Phone call on January 5, 2022, with a doctor on the other end saying, "Mr. Ferguson, you have cancer." Nothing will ever be quite the same again, will it? I was just one of nearly two million new cancer cases reported in the United States that year. Eventually almost 40% of the population will be diagnosed with cancer. Everyone reading this book knows someone, probably several, who are in this battle right now, some of whom are near and dear to you. You may have heard the cancer diagnosis yourself like I did and be amid your own battle.
Everyone's cancer battle is unique. Mine had some extremely rare twists and turns that left me at death's door fighting for life, and yet gave me some amazing insights which I felt compelled to share in print. They are of such a varied nature that no one will finish the book without being thankful for what they learned. As a well-seasoned writer, I can with some certainty predict that to be true, trust me.
As a long-time minister, I have spoken at more memorials than I can remember of those who lost their battle, my father being one of them. I have sat at the bedsides of those suffering in all stages of their illness, watching some draw their last breath. But I have seen many emerge on the other side with a smile on their faces, a result of a "cancer free" diagnosis. This is where I am right now, but there are no guarantees for what lies ahead. But as a good doctor friend of mine once said, "I know I am going to die, but not today!" All we have is today, and I want to help you live it with hope in your heart no matter what your present challenges are. To that end I wrote this book. May God speak to your heart as you read it!
