Description

Johnson hasn’t had cancer, but she has experienced it through the countless women whose courageous stories are the basis for this dramatization of one woman’s struggle with the formidable disease. Walk with this character -- this “everywoman” -- through the denial, the anger, and despair. Share her pain as she faces friendly fire from well-meaning acquaintances offering bumper-sticker inspiration. Feel the deep injustice as she confronts the loss of a breast -- and what feels like the loss of her womanhood. Then, finally, experience the strength and grace she discovers as she embraces Hope. As we see her “take it on the chin” and being “hit below the belt,” we cheer as this strong woman prevails in the toughest fight -- the fight for her spirit. Illus. Compact size.
