JONI ALDRICH - author of books on Cancer, personal exoerience

This was about GRIEF in all its lurid colors. Don't miss this. Joni knows about cancer—and its ramifications—all too well. In 2006, she lost her 43-year-old husband, Gordon, after a two-year battle with the disease, partially as a result of trusting the wrong medical treatment facility and team for the first five months of the fight to save Gordon’s life. Her first book, The Saving of Gordon: Lifelines to W-I-N Against Cancer (Cancer Lifeline Publications, 2009, ISBN: 978-1-4392550-3-2, $19.95,www.thecancerlifeline.com), tells the story of the Aldrich family’s experiences while simultaneously offering valuable step-by-step advice that will give readers the tools they need to have a fighting chance against cancer. Joni Aldrich believes that she has been preparing to write The Saving of Gordon and The Losing of Gordon for most of her life. As a child, she was a better than average student. She wrote dramatic poetry. Before college, she worked at a newspaper. In her professional career, she has worked in analysis, documentation, communications, and public speaking. She has also been able to incorporate her love of photography into the design of her books. However, her real motivation for writing The Saving of Gordon was two years of crisis in the cancer school of hard knocks. She feels it is her destiny to relay this story to readers in a way that will help them in their own cancer journeys. It is her hope that someday that journey will no longer be necessary for anyone. Joni is also the author of The Cancer Patient W-I-N Book: Our Cancer Fight Journal. visitwww.thecancerlifeline.com and www.griefbeacon.com.
