Celebration of Healing, Breast Cancer Events

A Celebration of Healing is an art book, a book of stories bringing encouragement and confidence to those impacted by breast cancer and other serious illness.  It is neither a cancer “how to” guide nor a Hallmark card – rather a book giving permission to laugh, to cry, rage and to know one is not alone.  The twenty-one paintings and narratives build bridges between the physical and emotional needs of patients, families, friends and the medical community. They become a part of the healing. A Celebration of Healing includes a wide range of breast cancer experiences and demographics.  Reader after reader, including those with different kinds of cancer, have commented, I wish I’d had this book when diagnosed.  These are my stories, my stories!  Others have suggested A stack of them should be in every doctor’s waiting room.

October, Breast Cancer Month is over.  What an honor for the Celebration of Healing paintings and books to be included in so many extraordinary events!  Complete list at http://celebrationofhealing.com  Thank you.

But breast cancer does not just happen in October.
