Medical challenges can cause us to fear. Some fear the treatments they must undergo to prolong life. Some fear the unknown that comes with many diseases. It's essential to educate yourself and advocate for yourself, as Nancy explains in this podcast. She agreed to be a guest because if this information can help one person, she wants to do that! It was not easy what she had to go through to do what she knew was best for her. She felt she was fighting at times against some doctors.
I did ask her about the cost, but what is your life worth?
She refers to many books that helped her, and the Believe Big non-profit Christian organization helped her tremendously. She does not blame God for the cancer that came upon her; she blames herself for not taking care of her body and for not handling stress in godly ways.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
