In 1981, Judy Garrity was diagnosed with aggressive breast cancer. When she heard the prognosis of 'two months to live, ' she brought her plea for a long life to her God, who promised her more time. Throughout her journey with cancer, she continued to bring her fears and pain to her loving God in the form of journals. In reading Bible verses, she had what she called "conversations with a loving God." This always brought her a sense of peace, and she was given several more years of life. After a year of being cancer-free, she discovered she had lung cancer. She died in 1984. On July 4th, 2021, through serendipity, Judy's college friend, Barbara, learned that Gwen, her daughter's best friend, was Judy's daughter. To add to her initial astonishment, she discovered that Gwen still kept Judy's journals. Barbara felt Judy calling her to bring her unfinished vision to life. After a year of translating Judy's journals, Barbara compiled them into book form adding her commentary and memories from Judy's children. Conversations With a Loving God is an intimate look into a woman's battle with cancer and how she found peace and comfort through her faith. Through journals and Bible verses, we witness the reassurance of God's word during her cancer journey. The story takes us back to the 1980s, a different time both medically and spiritually. However, it is remarkably current, resonating with our struggles, sense of isolation, fears, and need for reassurance when we are in doubt. As Judy would say, "My story of a loving God is needed today more than ever."
