“I found this book to be an easy read because Bill and I agree with one another… Bill is definitely a native guide, so you can trust his lead. Follow his umbrella as he takes you through this complex but manageable maze.”

— Bernie Siegel, M.D.
Author, A Book of Miracles

 

“I am so grateful to Bill for writing this book. I encourage – enthusiastically – folks passing through Cancerville to take along this travel atlas!”

My Personal Pledge

I pledge allegiance to myself and the united state of my being,
And to the resilience with which I stand,
One person, under strain,
With consideration and compassion for me.

Stranger in the Basement

By, Lisa Welch-Walker

There is a stranger in my basement,
My husband put him there.
He ran from reality,
Because he didn’t seem to care.
But, he can’t run from cancer,
Its all around you and me.
Eating away at lives,
Never seeming to be.
When you stop and realize,
It’s not just you and me.
That you really were loved,
And it was all meant to be.
There is no stranger in my basement any more,
As it just wasn’t meant to be.
But I am!
