    Now I Lay Me Down To Fight

    $16.00

    In stirring verse and essays, Katy Bowser Hutson chronicles her battle with breast cancer and the complications of faith amid such a fight. Accentuated by the art of Jodi Hays, Katy’s words lead us through the realization of cancer, the experience of chemotherapy and a mastectomy, relentless rounds of radiation, the uncertainty of ongoing treatment, and what comes after survival. She writes in resistance to sickness, of wrestling toward beauty:

    Cancer is an overgrowth, a kudzu:

    *Tangling and strangling legitimate life.
    *Chemo is a killing, a burning out:
    *Burning down to ashy carbon, indiscriminately
    *But cancer, did you know that I am a poet?

    Through it all, she shows what it means to struggle in a battered body and to pray to a God who is near to the broken. Join her in this consideration of mortality and witness her persisting trust in God’s unseen ways.
