"Febre's writing is at its most lyrical, starting off quietly and gently, then swelling to a crescendo of awe before calming to a resolute whisper of self-affirmation. Welcome to the Bright is a celebration not only of the life we've lived but of the living we have yet to do." -Troy Hollan, award-winning author of Clucked
After a year-long battle with Stage-4C Colon Cancer, 48-year-old Lisa finally heard the words she had been hoping for: no visible sign of disease. Chemotherapy and radiation treatments were over, she was technically disease free, and it was time to celebrate that success.
She never expected how difficult it would be to transition from colon cancer patient to colon cancer survivor.
Beginning a new regimen of treatments meant to prevent a recurrence, she faced the daunting task of returning to her former life. Plagued with debilitating panic attacks, she turns to nature to find the strength and inspiration she needs to navigate her rocky post-cancer recovery.
Welcome to the Bright chronicles the year after Lisa's first clear scan and her discovery that the path through the second half of her life is going to be a long and winding road. Becoming a survivor is just the beginning.
