Product Description
The Fat Lady Hasn't Sung is an amazingly candid, true story of Mary Walker's long, complicated, and courageous battle with and victory over cancer. In a surprisingly upbeat writing style, enhanced by good humor, she generously reflects on the many complications and life-threatening situations during her 16-year battle, including progressing from athletic wife and mother to wheelchair-bound optimist. More than a recovery memoir, this book may be the most remarkable story of the indomitable nature of the human spirit ever told. This book is must reading for anyone whose life has ever been touched by cancer, and an inspiration to anyone diagnosed with cancer. On another level,

Fat Lady Hasn't Sung is a love story focusing on the supportive relationship with her husband throughout her ordeal and their strong, enviable marriage.

5 out of 5 stars Inspiring story of hope   July 22, 2000

I also am a cancer survivor and found this book very inspiring. Mrs. Walker's positive outlook was in inspiration. If she could smile through her ordeal so could I. It's a must read.... If I could have given it 10 stars I would have.

this is truly an inspiring story of one woman's long fight against almost insurmountable odds. She is able to find humor in the most unlikely situations. She writes in a breezy, upbeat style


5 out of 5 stars Just Dandy!   January 9, 2008
Rebecca E. Brem (San Antonio, TX)
I am very proud and blessed to have been a friend to Mary Walker. This special, neat little lady always had a big smile on her face. No matter what was going on in her life her response to how are you was bubbly and always "Just Dandy!". A must read for anyone going through difficulties in their life. Because of Mary, I always try to answer that question the same way "Just Dandy". May God bless Mary and may she rest in peace. All my best and prayers to her family.
