Loved this book!

I just finished reading "It's Not About the Hair" by Debra Jarvis. The title caught my eye so I ordered it without knowing anything about it. She writes about her personal breast cancer experience in a very clever, funny and inspiring way. I could relate to so much of what she wrote. Don't be fooled by the fact that she is an ordained minister - she is not afraid to throw in a little "colorful" language here and there. So if that doesn't turn you off you just may enjoy it as much as I did.

Glad you mentioned this Gerri -
I have intended to post about this book.
It is my VERY great privilege to have Rev. Debra Jarvis as my cancer center chaplain. I have known her for about 4 years now and have gotten a lot out of our relationship. Her book is worth seeking out. She also had the breast cancer "experience" and was treated at our center.

Here is a link to her web site and book cover:

Hi Steph,

I actually wondered if you (or someone else) was familiar with the author. If she is anything like the way she writes it must be a real treat to be aquainted with her. I noticed that she is donating some of the proceeds of the book to a cancer organization (don't have the book with me so I don't remember which one) - makes it even more special.

All my best,
