About the Book
Ruth Olson had no intention of writing a book encouraging those with cancer. She never expected to get cancer in the first place. But after her recovery from the disease, she started thinking about writing such a book based on her strong Christian faith. Inside this book, the reader will find uplifting words wrapped in God's love. With many included Scriptures, Ruth provides a base of comfort and godly direction on the road to recovery. She writes, "I never thought I'd get cancer, but I did. I agonized if I would survive, and I did. This book may hold some answers to your questions. I hope so, because it's my Gift to You." Ruth Olson has a ministry of Christian writing and speaking and has published a bi-monthly magazine, "Gentle Doves", for over 25 years. Information on how to purchase her other two books, "Jesus Loves You This I Know", and "Keep on Walking", can be found on her website, www.gentledoves.org. She and her husband, Jerry, have 3 children and 7 grandchildren. They reside in Red Wing, MN.
