Bright Side of the Road

A few months ago, I received a copy of the book Bright Side of the Road by Anne Marie Bennett. Anne Marie takes us on her spiritual journey through breast cancer….and we are blessed by being able to walk with her. We see her honesty and her bravery as she learns to deal with all the issues of having, treating, and surviving breast cancer. This is one incredible lady……...extremely honest and hopeful she guides us through the complex issues surrounding any life threatening disease. Issues ranging from fear and anger to faith and spirit and everything in between are brought to light.
Along with the story of her journey, she includes many extras in her book that are incredibly helpful to anyone who is traveling or accompanying someone on their own journey through cancer. I especially like the chapter on Touchtones for Body, Mind, and Spirit in which she lists many resources and suggestions such as “notice what you are grateful for”, “use affirmations daily”, and “seek things that will make you laugh”. She also lists some of her own affirmations and other resources such as books, movies, cds that have been helpful to her. There is also a chapter on do’s and don’ts for family, friends, and caregivers.
Bright Side of the Road is a great read……a plethora of information…..and a must have for anyone dealing with the issues of cancer.
