Description:Yellow was her favorite color growing up on the farm. The color of corn. The color in their wedding. It was her husband's favorite "golf shirt color." It was the color of the 13 foot sunflowers they grew in their garden with their young daughters. Years later, a rare cancer diagnosis - "sarcoma"-- changed a lot in her life. Surgery. Chemotherapies. Lung surgery. Yet it turns out yellow is the "color for sarcoma"-- and sunflowers are the "flower." Tall, strong, and always looking toward the sun, Laura uses her faith, gratitude, prayer and the support of family and friends to help her through the first three years of living with sarcoma. She finds there is hope on the journey. This book is a compellation of Laura's "posts" from the Carepage.com journaling she has done through the first years of her illness. Originally thinking that she was writing to inform the congregation she co-pastored of her treatment, she found that she learned through writing as well. Insights are found in everyday things - gardens and baking and re-discovering knitting and quilting - and the extreme circumstances of her medical care, the challenges of facing disability, and severe pain starting at age 49. However, all are instances for discovering the Spirit at work in her life whether in times of lament or joy.Laura, her daughters, and family are familiar with cancer, as her husband died about six years before from Stage 4 colon cancer. Unlike colon cancer, sarcomas are very rare, and do not run in families. One out of every 100 cancers are sarcomas - of which there are almost 150 types. Laura learns that she has sclerosing epitheloid fibrosarcoma, an even more rare sub-type of sarcoma. Sarcomas are infrequently studied and have few available successful treatments.
