The Final Year of Wisdom: One Man's Journey Through Cancer

Duane, newly retired from pastoring, was looking forward to the future for him and his wife, Fran. But when they were given the news that he had stomach cancer, life took a sharp turn. The days turned into fighting to stay alive. The months became about coming to terms with faith and mortality. Through it all, Duane journaled his experiences. This devotional/memoir is a collection of his last year of encouragement and wisdom as Duane journeyed through a terminal diagnosis, surgeries, and treatments; his struggles, victories, and his surrender to exit this life into Heaven. If you are facing a challenge in your life or the life of someone you love, you can find help and hope in Duane’s words. They will encourage and challenge you to make the most of the life you’ve been given.
