How Cancer Cured Me: Dealing with Cancer and Other Stings of Life

Choosing a simple country life, Mark and Eulita have spent about half of their forty-four married years on a modest mountain farm near Boone, North Carolina, with a small orchard, berries, grapes, a greenhouse, and herb, flower, and vegetable gardens. They heat with a wood cookstove, have gravity spring water, and use solar- and wind-generated electricity. Mostly while their son, Josiah, was home, they kept a dairy goatherd, along with an assortment of sheep, horses, donkeys, a cow, emus, ducks, prairie dogs, chickens, honeybees, and ponds stocked with fish. Mark's favorite hobbies were white water canoeing, snow skiing, primitive backpacking, a fast game of soccer, and travel to foreign countries as a tourist or for short-term mission service. He still can enjoy gardening, music, photography, woodworking, and manipulative puzzles. He has worked in multiple factories, started a few small businesses, was a volunteer chaplain for a rehab hospital, an editor of a sermon resource, served as a pastor for twenty years, and directed a ministry that assists pastors and teachers. While having penned numerous articles by alias 'Dewey C. Wright', this is his first book.
