ONE DAY AT A TIME

ONE DAY AT A TIME IS WRITTEN FOR ANYONE WITH CANCER, OR AFFECTED BY CANCER.EDDIE WAS DIAGNOSED WITH STAGE 3 CANCER OF THE OESOPHAGUS ON HIS 49th BIRTHDAY. LATER THAT SAME DAY HE ENCOUNTERED GOD IN HIS DARKEST HOUR. A UBIQUITOUS FORCE OF STAGGERING INTENSITY, LIMITLESS COMPASSION AND UNFATHOMABLE LOVE OVERCAME HIME. IT FELT TIMELESS AND EDDIE JUST KNEW, WITH ABSOLUTE CERTAINTY, THAT ALL WOULD BE WELL. GIVEN THE CHOICE, EDDIE WOULD HAVE HAPPILY MISSED OUT ON THE WHOLE WRETCHED EXPERIENCE, BUT HE DIDN'T HAVE A CHOICE, AND SO EMBRACED THE CHALLENGE. FACED WITH MONTHS OF CHEMOTHERAPY, MAJOR SURGERY, LOSS OF BUSINESS AND LONG-TERM UNEMPLOYMENT, EDDIE RESOLVED TO TRUST GOD THANKFULLY, EDDIE MADE A FULL RECOVERY, BUT CANCER DRAMATICALLY ALTERS PERCEPTIONS AND ATTITUDES. HE NOW LIVES ONE DAY AT A TIME, TAKING PLEASURE FROM THE SIMPLE THINGS, ONCE PASSED UNNOTICED. NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE WITH GOD, AND IF THERE'S LIFE AFTER DEATH, IN A MUCH BETTER PLACE, THEN WHAT IS THERE TO BE AFRAID OF?
