Review of Cancer Faith & Butterflies

Jack Winnick · Post by **mrlefty0706** » 07 Apr 2024, 20:32

“Cancer Faith & Butterflies” is an incredible book about faith in God and the devastating impact of cancer on the victims and their families. This story revolves around Brooke and Joey and 12-year-old Jimmy in the room next door in the cancer ward. Brooke gave birth 10 months prior to her entering the hospital with cancer that was not responding to chemotherapy. Jimmy had been in remission from Leukemia at age 10 but it was back with a vengeance and Jimmy was not responding to the treatments the doctors used to try and save him. It was a very sad sample to read but faith in God made the story joyful. Jimmy passed away while Joey and Brooke knew that she would soon follow. Brooke truly believed in God, Joey not so much and Jimmy’s parents did not believe in God because they felt God would not put their son through this battle. Joey shared a story with Jimmy about life and God and Jimmy was at peace with the thoughts of going to Heaven when he died. Booke already knew she would go to Heaven but Joey would be so lost without her. Joey had to be strong for their daughter Sara. A story all members should read.

This review recommends that we read this book if we have experienced health challenges as this book has relatable situations . I believe that we will all be faced with losing someone we love to cancer at some points in our lives. This book will help us navigate those challenging roads ahead.

The novel dives deep into faith's complexity and does not give an easy answer. It compassionately reveals people who are placed in different stages of their spiritual wanderings, from Brooke, who is absolutely zealous, to Joe, who is in an argument with God.

Faith in God is seen as a model for Brooke, while for Joe, it is kind of confusing. When faced with the untold pain of losing his wife, Joe is put in a situation where he has to process his emotions of resentment, unworthiness, and betrayal, which ultimately chip away at his long-held credo.

I hope Brooke survives and Joe's faith in God endures.

Thank you for the great review.

I like Joey's perseverance amid the heartbreak brought by the loss of his parents while in school. I like his responsibility as he takes care of his father's business together with his sister. I also like that the book deals with cancer. Thanks for the review.

Cancer is an illness that touches many of our lives, and books like this can help both the person with the disease and the people around them. It does sound like this book is heavy on the faith concept, so I may give this one a miss for now.

Faith can be made stronger or completely broken in the face of a loved one's life threatening illness or death. Joey has already witnessed both of his parents pass on, but now he is faced with watching his beloved wife fight cancer. Will faith be able to carry him through?

This sounds like a captivating book that touches the core of your soul. There can not be anything more devastating than the possibility of a cancer verdict. I'm curious to see how Jimmy deals with this and what the outcome in the end will be. Thanks for a detailed review. Congrats on BOTD.
