    Receiving a diagnosis of a terminal illness causes many people to go into a tailspin of despair and depression. This is rarely considered a gift, but that is exactly what Baker conveys using his own experience and the truths of the Bible. With gentleness and candor, he explores the universal questions of why me, why now, and why this. Baker explains that it’s a gift for two very important reasons: first, it leaves you no choice but to face the inevitable; and second, you’ve been given time to get ready.

Nearly everyone recognizes the big loss at the end of the struggle—but it is those other losses, the “little” ones that come before, that often go unnoticed. But they
