Life-Changing Strategies for Surviving Cancer
Today, following decades of scientific and psychological study, there is overwhelming evidence that "mother love" does forever shape the life of a child. In her compelling new work, however, author and psychologist Brenda Hunter presents a convincing argument that indicates this love is even more powerful, even more far-reaching than our culture has yet realized-not only for the child, but for the mother.

patients! As breast cancer survivor, I feel empowered to take
charge of my own health. Staying Alive brings hope to every person
who has walked through the dark valley of cancer.”

“There is perhaps no more frightening word than ‘cancer.’ For Dr.
Brenda Hunter, it was more than a word; it was a diagnosis. In
Staying Alive, Dr. Hunter walks us through her personal experience
in the valley of the shadow of death. She doesn’t leave us there,
however. By sharing sound strategies that impact body, mind, and
spirit, Brenda takes us from hopelessness into healing; from fear
into faith.”

plan for preventative maintenance of your body, emotions, and
spirit.”

“A well-written journal on improving your health and “staying
alive” in spite of the complex diagnosis of cancer. [Hunter] has
managed to collate the many complex modalities used to treat cancer
and has condensed them into pearls of wisdom that would benefit
anyone. Plus she gives valuable resources of proven experts for
restoring the body, mending the mind, and strengthening our spirits
for the battles ahead.”

Living
“This fabulous book is a must-read, not only for those confronting
a cancer diagnosis but also for anyone who wants a healthier, more
fulfilled life. Dr. Brenda Hunter has beautifully sifted, sorted,
and compiled research and survivors’ stories to help us make
life-enhancing choices–for mind, body, and spirit.”
–LINDA LESOURD LADER, cofounder, Renaissance Weekends
“I have read Brenda Hunter’s Staying Alive with intense personal
interest since I, too, am a cancer survivor. (I was operated on for
a metastasized malignancy at age 36 and am now 80.) Through trial
and error I arrived at a few basic lifestyle changes that help keep
me healthy. But now Dr. Hunter has found many additional approaches
to winning the cancer battle–research that she has laid out in
easily accessible and eminently readable form–which I will add to
my regimen. What a boon Dr. Hunter’s book is to all of us intent on
Staying Alive.”
–JOHN SHERRILL, author of They Speak with Other Tongues
“Where was this book when we needed it, facing cancer in our
family? I suggest that families and spouses read this together,
discuss it, argue about all the suggestions on all fronts–physical,
emotional and spiritual–put it work, and see what miracles happen
in their own lives.”
–LAURAINE SNELLING, author of The Healing Quilt and The Way of
Women
“Dr. Hunter’s book is a powerful and practical guide for developing
an intentional approach to a healthy lifestyle. Her ideas are as
understandable as they are manageable. This book will be an
invaluable resource for churches who desire to come alongside those
with cancer and to help people live a balanced life, emotionally,
physically, and spiritually.”
–SUE LANGLIE, Frontline, a ministry of McLean Bible Church, McLean,
Virginia
