We are like trees that can dance As a human being, we are surrounded by a garden of life. This is an emotional story about surviving cancer and belief in the personal power we have in our own healing. Its pages hold rainbows of love and sunbeams of laughter that can follow behind a devastating storm of terror and tears. The story theme is how our bodies and minds are like gardens. Told in two voices by the patient (daughter) and her mother. Gardeners and non-gardeners alike, along with people whose lives are interrupted by cancer or other life-threatening disease, will find within these pages inspiration and lessons of surviving well under the cloud of what all human beings are issued at birth, a death sentence; and will indeed realize how life itself is The Garden of Being.
