Spiritual Catalyst. Embrace the power within, let go and be guided by life. “Healing Becomes You”
Nicky Bell was diagnosed with Ewing’s Sarcoma at age thirteen and died five years later, with his mother and best friend at his side. A Journey of Unconditional Love tells Nicky and Michele’s story, describing the battle with cancer in great detail. But this book is about more than cancer and cancer treatment, and the fight to survive. It’s about more than a mother and her son who had to face his mortality at such a young age, and the despair and anguish that comes in losing that fight. It’s about more than death… this book is about life.
It’s about how this mother and this son approached the everyday moments of life despite the greater story that was playing out around them, outside of their control. It’s about what each learned from the other, and the powerful role each played, and is still playing, in the other’s experience. It’s about the depth of human spirit and the soul’s ultimate survival, and what the one left behind is supposed to do with that energy. The connection between this mother and this son has lived on long since his passing, and continues to be a force in this mother’s life every day.
The inspiration in this story comes from the millions of small everyday moments, the choices made, the words spoken, and the unconditional love that makes such a seemingly senseless experience somehow bearable.
This book gives a voice to parents and loved ones, caregivers, and patients who relate to this, who know they feel every heartbeat in this story, but struggle to come to grips with their own experience.
