Rev. Lari Goold has taken her son's Caring Bridge journals written during his 4-year journey through lymphoma. Chris Goold was a prolific writer who wrote humorously about his disease while also offering positive encouragement to anyone who is experiencing a life-threatening disease. Anyone who read the journals learned a great deal about the challenges a patient meets during the many scans and chemotherapy he goes through. Rev. Lari prefaces the journals with metaphysical teachings about dealing with disease and other events in our lives that are the result of cause and effect.
