Notes from the Valley: A Spiritual Travelogue Through Cancer
Autor Andy McQuitty Matt Chandleren Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 dec 2014
At 2:58 PM on July 14, 2009, Andy McQuitty entered the valley of the shadow of death. Andy, his doctor said, you have a massive tumor that has broken through the wall of your colon. It s cancer. It s serious. Get in here now.
Hearing you have cancer does more than warn you of death.It displaces you emotionally and spiritually, as it did for Andy and the roughly 1.7 million cancer patients diagnosed in America annually. "Notes from the Valley "gives you a window into their experience.
In the persona of a travel writer sending notes back from the desert, Andy recounts his journey through stage IV cancer, in which he discovered what King David did in his own valley: that in suffering, God s presence isn t diminished, but magnified.
Written with humor and sensitivity, " Notes from the Valley" is for anyone on this journey or traveling alongside a loved one who is. It provides words of wisdom, comfort as it addresses questions like:
- ""Why did I get cancer?""
- ""Does God still love me?""
- ""Can I tell Him how I really feel?""
- ""Is it possible to suffer well?""
- ""Can any good come of this?""

"Andy, you have a massive tumor that has broken through the wall of your colon. It s cancer. It s serious. Get in here now."" That pronouncement was an emotional and spiritual change of address to the Valley of the Shadow of Death. Yet what Andy discovered in that Valley mirrors the experience of King David: that God s presence was magnified not diminished by his journey there. And so, in the persona of a travel writer sending notes back from the desert, this Stage IV cancer survivor tackles gut level questions like:
"Why did I get cancer?"
"Does God still love me?"
"Can I tell Him how I really feel?"
"Is it possible to suffer well?"
"Can any good come of this?"
Written with humor and sensitivity, " Notes from the Valley" is for anyone on this journey or traveling alongside a loved one who is craving words of wisdom, comfort, and purpose."
