About the Authors
Gail Gannon VanHecke lives in Muscatine, Iowa, with her husband, Chuck. Gail and Chuck have two grown sons, a daughter-in-law, and two grandsons. In 2002, Gail was whisked away from the corporate world, where she worked as a professional and technical recruiter. A cancer diagnosis and a friend’s gift of a journal turned Gail’s attention away from her office day-timer and toward a more introspective kind of note-taking. In her journal, Gail wrote her “positively positive” thoughts, feelings, prayers, and experiences. Gail’s personal account, Cancer: Messages To and From a Survivor, is based on that journal, and on the encouraging messages she received from others during her cancer journey.
