Produktbeschreibung
Following her diagnosis with an aggressive form of metastatic breast cancer, Norma Woody found herself the bearer of two seemingly unendurable burdens: the knowledge that she was dying, and the realization that too much of the life she had left would be spent in solitude and pain. Yet as the door to her physical life was closing, a window to her inner life was flung open. In her time spent alone wrestling with thoughts and disappointments, Norma found solace in writing, and was able to explore her creative mind and unlock feelings long denied her. In the process, she plumbed new depths of forgiveness, releasing expectations and uncovering within herself a greater childlike wonder for the world and a deeper respect for the God she had always believed in. Impressions Behind the Pink Ribbon is her record of that journey through hardship to peace, and it stands as a gift bestowed in unending faith and love.
Autorenporträt
Through sheer will, resolve, and deep faith, Norma Woody was able to complete a draft of this, her second memoir, while in the relentless grip of Stage IV metastatic cancer. After a long and grueling battle, she passed away in September 2016. To honor Norma's labor of love, her husband, Richard, worked with her publisher to assemble, edit, and publish these essays posthumously.
