Living and Working with Cancer

When a person has such a sudden life-changing experience, a lot of emotions come to the fore. The first emotion was shock, followed by confusion and anger. Whom was I angry with? Let's face it, no one ever imagines himself/herself suffering from an incurable disease. When Beki P Langa was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2001, she made the extraordinary decision to keep her illness a secret. In Living and Working with Cancer she talks of her need to remain strong for her two children and demonstrates her determination to survive. Armed with her Catholic faith and an optimistic attitude, she teaches us that we have the strength to overcome the setbacks we face in life. Beki P Langa is the youngest of three siblings. She has a sister, Marjorie, and a brother, Phillip, who passed away in 1997. To her, life is a song worth singing. Her favourite song is 'We have Overcome'. The aim of this book is to give 'hope' to cancer sufferers, their loved ones and carers.
