Bertha's Battle: A Lesson in Faith and Survival

by Bertha Kreinhop and Mel Calvert

BERTHA’S BATTLE: A Story of Faith and Survival, by Bertha Kreinhop as told to Mel Calvert.

A memoir of one woman’s battle with cancer and her reliance on faith from debut author Kreinhop, with occasional commentary by author Calvert (How I Quit Smoking and Lived to Tell About It, 2014).

After having a tumor discovered in her chest, the author first experienced shock—“I was numb all over”—followed by tears, prayer and, eventually, a kind of spiritual acceptance. (“God had a plan. If I were part of that plan for the future, I would be in it. If not, I wouldn’t. So be it!”) And so begins a personal journey through a daunting world of doctors, tests and chemotherapy.
