While Still There is Light by Nancy Shaffer
In 2011, Nancy Shaffer's life suddenly changed when she was diagnosed with a fatal brain tumour. Here is her heartrending and heartwarming account of her final year as she came to terms with impending death. Part journal, part reflection and fully honest, Shaffer's account of her journey through denial to peaceful acceptance will lend inspiration and courage to those in need and insight to those who give pastoral care.
