"When you hear those blood-chilling words, it turns your life upside down: You have cancer. Larry Martel heard them the Friday before Thanksgiving in 2009, and he found that he had more questions than answers. He's sharing his story to provide others with information and encouragement. In his book, he reveals why it's essential that you embrace your cancer, how to move beyond the fear of death to enjoy life, how and why it's important to invite your family and friends along on your journey, and how to create a new life plan. You'll also learn how to decide whether to participate in clinical trials and learn about other steps that could add years to your life. You won't find the word "victim" often in the book: That's because those afflicted with cancer are not victims. You aren't powerless, and the word "victim" does nothing to help you deal with your diagnosis. While no one wants to be diagnosed with cancer, it doesn't mean life is over. Transform your feelings of powerlessness into a source of incredible strength by Embracing Cancer-Embracing Life."

Autorenporträt
Known as a loving husband, father, and loyal friend by family and friends and a dedicated contractor by clients and associates, Larry Martel now begins a new chapter. For many years, Larry's writing was confined to detailed construction proposals, lauded by his clients for their organized, descriptive style. The decision to abandon his lifelong career in construction was necessitated by three words he'd heard on the morning of December 9, 2009: "You have cancer." Words that turned his world upside down, changing it forever. The idea to become an author was sparked by his friends and family's responses to the series of e-mails he wrote describing his experiences and feelings as his cancer advanced. In fact, it was at the urging of those family members and friends, along with the nurses and doctors he's met on his journey, that convinced him to write. In 2013, after considerable thought, he decided that the lessons he'd learned on his journey should be shared with others. In Embracing Cancer - Embracing Life: The Guide for the Journey Beyond Diagnosis, Larry leads you through a myriad of questions that demand answers, while at the same time, providing you with the tools that you'll need to make the journey from dread to joy. His writing is not a therapeutic endeavor for himself; he's writing for you and to you. In a comfortable, charming style, Larry invites you in, asking you to make his world your own. Because he embraces everyone, he's like an old friend talking story or helping you navigate a difficult situation. You can feel his openness on the first page and his honesty throughout this, his first published work. Larry tells his story without anger or regret because he has neither. Larry embraced his cancer not long after his diagnosis and found that in so doing, he'd embraced life in a whole new way. The author lives with his wife, Bobbie, on the island of Oahu, an hour's drive from Honolulu.
