This book is about hope, the tool needed to heal from cancer. Margaret Lang has lived through the diagnosis, the treatment and the deliverance from that dreadful disease. She has been encouraged to write about that journey in vivid detail to show where she got the strength for her wonderful healing. The purpose of the book is to show healing is possible and the means to attain it. Written in very personal terms, the journey she describes is meant to restore confidence to the cancer patient, family and friends, and even caregivers. Hope inspires strength. The healing of cancer demands both. Moving Forward is what it says: the inspiration for a miracle. Margaret Lang is a mom, a friend, a former English teacher of thirty years, a real estate agent, and now an author. For many years she has taught and mentored students and friends always sharing her belief in possibility. She has just experienced cancer and transformed her life by successfully meeting that challenge. Hopefully, chronicling her journey will bring faith and hope to many others. Asked what her purpose is in life, she refers to Psalm 26:7: "That I may make the voice of my thanksgiving heard and may tell of all Your wondrous works." (TELB)
