All Things Work for Good: A Book of Encouragement for People with Cancer, Their Family and Friends

What do you do when you are told you have cancer? What if it's a relative or friend? A diagnosis of cancer can lead to many spiritual, mental, and physical questions.

In this book, All Things Work for Good, Gavin Sinclair tells about his battle with cancer. When Gavin was 24 years old, an X-ray showed a football-size tumor in his chest. He was given four months to live. His wife was pregnant with their first child. Gavin had chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery to cure the cancer. These treatments led to many secondary problems including congestive heart failure, spinal surgery, and a stroke.

In the first section of All Things Work for Good, Gavin tells his story. In the second section, family and friends tell how the experience affected them. In the third section, Gavin outlines 14 lessons that can be helpful to others.

This is not just another dry, technical treatise on dealing with a serious illness. Gavin writes candidly, humorously, and with clarity about a very personal ordeal. As he and others share their stories, you will be touched, enriched, and encouraged by their openness and their very practical suggestions.
