Life's Mountains: What A Brain Tumor Survivor Learned
Learn more about my journey from my inspirational book!
Life’s Mountains climbs with Cheryl Broyles to the summit of California’s Mount Shasta and through the trial of “terminal” brain cancer. Told she had only a year to live, Cheryl did everything she could to stay alive. Four years later, still breathing, she and her husband Matt planned to climb Mount Shasta to celebrate her survivorship. Cheryl describes the similarity between climbing mountain trails and living through life’s trials. She gives hope for reaching each peak, seeing life anew and loving each day through good and bad times.
