Tale of the Toboggans

Cancer is a life changing experience whether your own or in the life of a loved one. That background brings me to this book, Tale of the Toboggans. I don't even know how I came to it, except that it was a free offering on Kindle. I just said the other day that it is Just over four years ago, my wife was diagnosed with breast cancer. I just said the other day that it is unlikely that I will ever read all of the free Kindle books I have downloaded, but I am so glad that I opened this one. This book is an autobiographical account of Christian Schmidt's battle with a rare form of cancer, rhabdomyosarcoma.

Quite plainly, this is one of the most moving, engaging books I have had the pleasure to read. Schmidt's descriptions of the treatment process and the ensuing physical, mental, and spiritual struggles is all too right. I find myself torn. On the one hand, there are few books I have read that I think are more important for my wife to read and yet, I am not sure what she might encounter.

I have no doubt that this book will generate emotions she has not had for a long time. Schmidt is brutally honest, which is a thing of rare beauty. What was even more beautiful to me was the increasing thirst to bring glory to God through his battle.

Here are the people to whom I would recommend this book. Those who know someone with cancer. Those who experience the pain of longing in some area of their life. Those who want to understand what cancer is like. Those with a heart.

How do you rate a book by a dead friend? Actually, I never knew Christian personally, but I know his parents and his former best friend. My favorite thing about this book is that it is clearly written in Christian's own voice, without a ton of editing to make it more "authorial.

Nearing the end, there is one more bend before you cross back over the stream and reach the Gaisalpe. The imposing, snow-covered mountainsides rise up like a horseshoe over the valley basin below.

Now you can sledge down all the way from the Gaisalpe to Reichenbach far below. The toboggan run is comfortable and provides an uncomplicated descent back the way you came.
