On March 2, 2020, Mary Zoller heard the words no one expects: stage 3 invasive ductal carcinoma. What followed was not only a battle against aggressive triple-negative breast cancer, but a profound spiritual journey marked by fear, surrender, prayer, and unwavering faith.
Dear Family, Friends, and Prayer Warriors: Writings of a Journey Through Cancer is an intimate chronicle of diagnosis, chemotherapy, surgery, radiation, and recovery—woven together with journal entries, heartfelt emails, Scripture, worship lyrics, and raw reflections from the valley of uncertainty. As the world shut down during COVID-19, Mary faced treatment largely in isolation, yet discovered she was never alone.
With honesty about hair loss, fatigue, pain, medical setbacks, and emotional overwhelm, she invites readers into the daily realities of cancer. But even more powerfully, she reveals the sustaining presence of God in hospital rooms, infusion chairs, sleepless nights, and whispered prayers.
