About the Book
Reverend Diana M. Fields shares how her faith helped her slay the cancer giant for good in part two of her memoir. After beating breast cancer, she breathed a sigh of relief.
But six years after her initial lumpectomy in 2006, doctors told her because the BRCA gene could show up at any time in her other breast, she should consider yet another surgery. She wasn’t ready to hear that and asked God, “Why another surgery?” Just when she had begun to settle into being cancer-free, she was hit with this bombshell news.
In continuing to tell her story, the author reveals how she withstood the emotional, and physical toll of medical tests, surgeries, and treatments to slay the cancer giant once and for all.
