Jason Micheli, a young father, husband, and pastor, was diagnosed
with a bone cancer so rare and deadly that his doctors didn't
classify it with one of the normal four stages-they simply called
it "stage-serious." As Micheli struggled with despair and faced his
own mortality, he resolved that although cancer kills the body, it
would not kill his spirit, faith, or sense of humor. Micheli knew
that the promise of faith makes hope possible. And approaching
cancer as fodder for some bowel-busting humor helps, too. His
reflections are not trite. Instead, he writes honestly about being
stricken with lethal cancer in the midst of a promising career and
raising two young children. He struggles with his commitment to the
God who, as he writes, may or may not be doing this to him. Because
figuring this out for himself-not to mention explaining it to his
congregation and his sons-is so important that theology is now a
matter of life and death. This is a funny, no-holds-barred,
irreverent-yet-faithful take on the disease that touches every
family. Micheli's story teaches us all how to stay human in
dehumanizing situations-how to keep living in the face of death.
