The Silent Scream

Rate this book
CANCER that one word changed our lives forever. My husband has cancer. We told ourselves we would get through this. Day after day I watched my husband slowly give into this nasty shitty illness. My role was to be the positive one, to give encouragement to him when I knew in my heart that his time was running out. This is my story raw and real. On the day he died I was the only one with him holding his hand and telling him I loved him.

I had no peace instead I had people trying to give me advice of what my husband would like at his funeral what poems I should read and the music that should be played. How the hell would any of them know what he wanted. I was the only one who knew what he wanted. I wrote this book to try and help people who are going through this journey or who are about to start. I hope my advice helps you. As hard as it is at this time you can do this, Just listen to your heart and stay strong. All of those people who think they know. They have not yet walked in your shoes and taken your journey.

I was born in Hamilton New Zealand. My passion had always been writing. Yet life just seemed to get in the way. Somehow career choices always came first. I met a man who I was to spend the next 34 years of my life with. Sadly I lost my husband to cancer last year. It was the reality of now being on my own that I decided the time has come to write. The funny thing is I can't write directly onto my computer. Every time I log on I seem to waste such a lot of time. I surf the internet, check on Facebook, play chess anything but write. The answer to my problem was close at hand. I simply open an exercise book and armed with a pencil the words come. I love it because I can sit outside in my garden or go to the beach my story is always with me. I love the fact that a crisp blank page is suddenly filled with characters taking a journey of discovery. My husband and I moved to Whanganui six years ago. A beautiful city on the west coast of the North Island of New Zealand. It was here that we found out my husband was terminally ill. I now live alone with three cats, and my German Shepherd dog Rosie. My life is full of adventures, mayhem, and mischief but when you get to my age, anything is possible. I enjoy reading, fishing and sipping cocktails on the beach with my girlfriends. Whanganui is a vibrant city. Fantastic and friendly people live here. I am lucky to live near the sea. The majestic Whanganui river gently flows past my door. One hour’s drive from Whanganui are three beautiful snowy mountains all volcanic. Yikes!!!

Nancy did an amazing job telling her and her husbands story. Be prepared to feel all the stages of grief with her. When you finish this book you will want to hug your family tight. We only have one life and we never know when it’s our turn to go. Sending so many hugs and prayers to Nancy.

A very poignant novel regarding the author's dealing with cancer and how she coped. An extremely fascinating account of her journey. Real and captivating.
