I urge everyone who wants an inspired account of God's unending love for his children to read this book. Stephanie has witnessed for justice, and spoken truth to power through many dangers, toils and snares, always trusting God to see her through. Now, she tells how God moves in mysterious ways to see her through another kind of peril. Her strong faith will be a blessing!

This book goes to the core of the reader’s total consciousness about any experience, either personal or vicarious, with any form of cancer. Stephanie Parker-Weaver bares her soul and opens a window for the rest of us to see how a true survivor copes with trauma after trauma. This is a lesson for each of us who reads her book. She is deliberate in writing in such a manner that her own struggle is under-played while she educates the rest of us about the Her2 gene. REBIRTH: A Breast Cancer Journey of Many; Survival of Few, written in Stephanie’s own inimitable style, is one more piece of herself—one more gift—that Stephanie shares with others.
