Eric, a very interesting and inspiring book I read is called Grace and Grit written by Ken Wilbur. It is written both by him and his wife that had the cancer.
It is really good that you are connected with others at this site on these issues. I am sure they can help you a tremendously and you can help others.
Wishing you and your family prayers and good thoughts. I was going to say "welcome", but I noticed you have been here longer then me!
