Peter a Scalzo

Cancer & Peace, My 15-Year Journey Peter a Scalzo

If you or someone you know has cancer, or is going through some other situation that may seem hopeless, this is a book you will want to read. Peter A. Scalzo was only 43 years old when he was diagnosed with deadly high-grade bladder cancer, which came as a shock even to his doctors because he appeared to be in good health, worked out almost every day, ate right, and his weight was good. Twice during his 15-year journey the advice was to go home, call hospice, and put his affairs in order. A successful lawyer with and six children, Peter explains how he was able to find peace, comfort-even joy-through 15 surgeries, as well as numerous medical procedures, tests, and hospital stays-although at times the outlook appeared incredibly bleak. Peter now maintains that he is a better person for having taken this journey, and it was not he that got him through it, but rather, it was a Higher Power that you will want to come to know as he did, put your faith in, and ultimately depend upon to deliver the best possible outcome in each and every situation.
