Editorial Reviews
Product Description
A book of powerful stories about cancer patients and their families who have been touched by God in miraculous ways--some in their bodies, others in their minds, all in their spirits--offers inspiring testimony that, when God and cancer meet, cancer is conquered. The author, herself a cancer survivor, gives us a behind-the-scenes glimpse of 18 personal encounters with God.

Here's what others are saying about When God and Cancer Meet:
"Lynn has captured the essence of hope in this book; captured hope in ways that I have always taught in my professional world as well as in my spiritual community. This book is a treasure to those who struggle with the fears of cancer and I want to keep it close at hand for those reasons."

--Judy Lentz, RN, MSN, OCN, NHA
Executive Director, Hospice and Palliative Nurses Association

"I co-lead a cancer support group at my church, and we have been looking for "just the right book" to study and discuss. Guess what?! Lyn wrote it! I was truly touched by all the stories; of course being a cancer-survivor myself, I saw myself in one of the stories, as if Lyn were writing my own personal story. I was truly impressed with the way she incorporated scripture, and God's viewpoint into every story. I think that is of utmost importance for anyone facing this disease.
Lyn's book is "Real-Life"; some quickly are healed of the cancer, some deal with it over a prolonged period, some deal with recurrences, some, mercifully, die rather quickly. I share Lyn's belief that GOD sometimes chooses to heal in different ways: physically, emotionally and spiritually.
In the process of surviving a primary brain tumor, surgery, Chemo, and radiation, I gave my life to Christ, realizing that my physical health was not GOD's main concern, my Spiritual health was the biggest victim of a disease that needed attention and this was the way He FINALLY got my attention. Lyn's book alludes to this fact in every one of her stories. In this day and age that we are living, where it is against the rules to even mention GOD ( unless we mention His name in vain) it is refreshing to have a book written, praising Him for His care and concern for us; written by a woman who has experienced the disease firsthand, and continues to minister to others with cancer, and to work for a Doctor! who isn't ashamed of his Faith ! WOW!!
Obviously, Lyn's book has my highest reccomendation, and my support group will be purchasing multple copies, and we plan to invite Lyn to speak with us. Lyn is a wonderful person, and I thank God for allowing our paths to cross. I'm sure this book will touch many lives,and give many a new perspective and hope with their cancer."

--Chris Winand, cancer survivor

2 out of 5 starsWhen God and Cancer Meet, 2008-08-22
I am a chaplain on the oncology unit of a large hospital and I would NOT recommend this book to all of my patients. I would recommend it to those who were Chrisitans or on the road to becoming Christians. The author's exclusive Christian view of life would not be helpful to our patients' that are of a different spiritual persuasion. One would think, while reading this book, that one would need to become a Christian to be either cured of their cancer or make sense of the disease. There were two good quotes near the end of the book that were useful; i.e. one about hope and the other by Chuck Swindol which I have used in my ministry with patients of all spiritual persuasions.

I've had opportunity to give this book to several people who are currently fighting cancer. My husband had a 9 year battle with this disease and could easily have been one of the people Lynn wrote about if their paths had crossed. The thing I like best about this book is that Lynn includes a message of encouragement at the end of each chapter.

The books arrived in great shape. As a 17 year cancer survivor (Stage I in 1993, Stage IV in 2001) I found this book to be fantastic and great support. I highly recommend this book.

5 out of 5 starsDon't let the God in the title fool you, 2007-09-11
I typically don't recommend books that deal with religion/God in any way because of the variety of beliefs in the people I associate with, however I felt this book did a good job in not specifying any one belief system and would likely not offend anyone, God-fearing or not. Helps gives those in despair a reason to hang on, meaning to their pain. Recommended highly.

5 out of 5 starsCancer Survivor Who Loves and Uses This Book, 2007-05-16
I am the sister that Barry Hidey speaks about in his review of this book. He gave me this book during my bout with breast cancer. It deals with all kinds of people and how they dealt with their cancer. In my experience I have found that people respond differently to cancer and everyone will find stories that touch their hearts. I too have used the book when after my own cancer a dear friend found she also had breast cancer.
