Description
As River Marilou Penner writes in Between a Rock and a Heart Place, medicine can come in many forms. The first form was chemotherapy. When River was first diagnosed with cancer, she thought long and hard about the journey she faced. She knew that she couldn't remain in denial forever. She would have to start on the road to recovery. She just wished she could make sure that the path beneath her feet was stable. The second type of medicine River cherished was her husband, Streams Paramananda. He was with her throughout the process, by her side for every step of the journey. As River's treatment began, the two made a conscious decision to cherish each day together and keep these moments close to their hearts. River did this through journal entries and photographs while Streams wrote a poem to his wife every single day. Their combined creative efforts make up Between a Rock and a Heart Place, an inspirational memoir meant to help other cancer patients cope with their own journeys. River and Streams intend their work to be a compass for those facing cancer to help them navigate the road ahead.
