Radical Survivor: One Woman's Path Through Life, Love, and Uncharted Tragedy

"I'm sorry. There were no survivors." Nancy Saltzman tried to absorb the caller's words. Her entire family had perished in a small-plane crash. The caller was wrong, though. There was a survivor--Nancy would have to go on living. She had beaten cancer twice, but how could even the most resilient spirit live through this ultimate loss? chronicles Nancy Saltzman's extraordinary saga: how her early life prepared her for adversity, how true love and family deepened her inner strength, how making a difference in the lives of others helped her heal. We share her struggle as she overcomes despair through a deep sense of purpose. And we learn that through time, friendship, and love, the heart can make room for both loved ones lost and happiness found. With the added richness and insights of letters Saltzman received before and after the crash, as well as her sons' journal entries, traverses the full spectrum of human emotions, offering a gift of hope for anyone dealing with tragedy or loss.
