When Alice Mpofu-Coles, a former Zimbabwean diplomat, was diagnosed with breast cancer, the news came as a blow. Having experienced the deaths of her parents, four brothers, and husband in the twelve years prior to diagnosis, left alone to battle her illness while caring for two small daughters, she turned to God. Many might react with surprise at the thought that someone would be grateful for a cancer diagnosis. But within the pages of Dear God From Your Poached Egg Breast, Alice Mpofu-Coles triumphs over her hardship. Living in the UK as a refugee, answers were difficult to find, so she turned to herself and found strength she never knew she had--strength to live, strength to love, and strength to survive. Intimate and organic, her story illustrates one woman's battle to understand why cancer chose her and how she coped while caring for her children and even furthering her education. Infused with African innuendos and humour, her conversations with God will make readers laugh, cry, and face their own mortality with grace.

Dear Deb shows how two ordinary women found the miracles of hope, love, and friendship. What do you say to a friend who has only a few months to live? The day Deb announced she had inoperable lung cancer, author Margaret Terry agreed to send her encouraging words and do something she had never done before—believe in a miracle. Margaret looked deep into the well of her own life to find encouragement Deb could relate to. She wrote Deb things they might have shared if they had more time, secret stories of vulnerability and loss, of love and forgiveness. Dear Deb showcases the power of a good story told with an open and faithful heart. Readers will feel connected with their loves and losses, their hopes and dreams, and reconnect with the wonder of everyday miracles. They will laugh and they will weep when a father and daughter reconnect after a twenty-year silence. They will cheer when forgiveness is redefined in the brokenhearted aftermath of divorce. They will sense on every page that hope and strength are within their grasp. Most of all, after readers close this book, they will remember those ordinary moments that make life extraordinary, the ones we all share when we open our hearts to finding love and joy in unexpected places. And, they will remember that if we look really hard, we can find miracles. Dear Deb is a celebration of life even when the odds are stacked against it.

A book of powerful stories about cancer patients and their families who have been touched by God in miraculous ways—some in their bodies, others in their minds, all in their spirits—offers inspiring testimony that, when God and cancer meet, cancer is conquered. The author, herself a cancer survivor, gives us a behind-the-scenes glimpse of 18 personal encounters with God. Here's what others are saying about When God & Cancer Meet: “Lynn has captured the essence of hope in this book; captured hope in ways that I have always taught in my professional world as well as in my spiritual community. This book is a treasure to those who struggle with the fears of cancer and I want to keep it close at hand for those reasons.” —Judy Lentz, RN, MSN, OCN, NHA Executive Director, Hospice and Palliative Nurses Association “I co-lead a cancer support group at my church, and we have been looking for “just the right book” to study and discuss. Guess what?! Lyn wrote it! I was truly touched by all the stories; of course being a cancer-survivor myself, I saw myself in one of the stories, as if Lyn were writing my own personal story. I was truly impressed with the way she incorporated scripture, and God's viewpoint into every story. I think that is of utmost importance for anyone facing this disease. Lyn's book is “Real-Life”; some quickly are healed of the cancer, some deal with it over a prolonged period, some deal with recurrences, some, mercifully, die rather quickly. I share Lyn's belief that GOD sometimes chooses to heal in different ways: physically, emotionally and spiritually. In the process of surviving a primary brain tumor, surgery, Chemo, and radiation, I gave my life to Christ, realizing that my physical health was not GOD's main concern, my Spiritual health was the biggest victim of a disease that needed attention and this was the way He FINALLY got my attention. Lyn's book alludes to this fact in every one of her stories. In this day and age that we are living, where it is against the rules to even mention GOD ( unless we mention His name in vain) it is refreshing to have a book written, praising Him for His care and concern for us; written by a woman who has experienced the disease firsthand, and continues to minister to others with cancer, and to work for a Doctor! who isn't ashamed of his Faith ! WOW!! Obviously, Lyn's book has my highest reccomendation, and my support group will be purchasing multple copies, and we plan to invite Lyn to speak with us. Lyn is a wonderful person, and I thank God for allowing our paths to cross. I'm sure this book will touch many lives,and give many a new perspective and hope with their cancer.” —Chris Winand, cancer survivor
