In October of 1999, a team of medical specialists diagnosed Angela Peterson's mother, Judy Butler, with stage 4 colon cancer - the very last stage of one of the deadliest forms of cancer. Doctors said the first priority was emergency surgery to try to stop the massive hemorrhaging. If this was not successful, she had only two to three days to live. Even if she survived the surgery, the cancer itself could never be operated on because it was too large and had entwined itself around some major organs of her body.

The doctor's only hope, medically, was to aggressively treat her with a colostomy, chemotherapy and radiation in hopes that it would slow down the cancerous growth enough to give Judy more time--maybe two months--to live. The best of medical science could only prolong her death sentence. God had a different plan! She was declared medically cancer-free on April 17, 2000!

"Healed: A Crash Course in What to Do Spiritually and Practically," reveals the strategies Angelas mother and her caregivers followed to experience victory over a serious illness.

From the Author:
"This book is all from life experience. This could happen to any family, any person, at any time. It is the most frightening and lonely time when one has no idea if the next day will hold life or death. Day after day after day after day. Mom prayed and asked God if it was her time to die or to keep fighting, and He told her to keep fighting for her life. This book is a crash course in what to do spiritually and practically for anyone going through a serious illness (http://www. caregiverstrength. com/)], or caring for a person with a serious or life-threatening illness or injury. It is a compilation of what Dad and I learned from the challenges faced during this journey of keeping Mom as strong as possible spiritually, physically, mentally and emotionally - as well as keeping her comfortable - while getting her back to health. The many scriptures we used to keep ourselves and Mom encouraged in our faith are in the book, and are the primary reason for her miraculous healing."

The book is available at www. CaregiverStrength. com and everywhere books are sold.
