Healing With Words

Healing With Words: A Writer's Cancer Journey is a compassionate and
wry self-help memoir written by an award-winning prolific author, nurse and
poet, who at the age of forty-seven found her life shattered first by a DCIS
(early breast cancer) diagnosis and five years later by another, seemingly unrelated
and incurable cancer--multiple myeloma. The book includes the author's
experiences, reflections, poetry and journal entries, in addition to writing
prompts for readers to express their own personal story.
Raab's journals have provided a safe haven and platform to validate and express
her feelings. Raab views journaling to be like a daily vitamin--in that it
heals, detoxifies and is essential for optimal health.


Readers will learn to:

Understand the importance of early cancer detection and how to take control of their own health

Discover the power of writing to release bottled-up emotions

Learn how the process of journaling can facilitate healing

See how a cancer diagnosis can be a riveting event which can renew and change a person in a unique way



Praise for Raab's Healing With Words:


"One woman's story, beautifully told and inspiring to those for whom
journaling will ease a cancer diagnosis."

"Time after time, Diana articulates incisively the thoughts and feelings that
convey hoped-for meaning and encouragement. She is a woman who knows
what it is to live fully in the face of mortality. She will add value to the life of
every person who reads this book. Healing With Words resonates at a spiritual
level for me."

--Sena Jeter Naslund, author of Ahab's Wife and Abundance: A Novel of Marie Antoinette
