This Day Won’t Come Again book

This Day Won't Come Again book cover

“Waking to the stunning realization she had cancer, Jocelyn Rasmussen’s first thought was that she needed a miracle. Her second thought was that she didn’t want to die with any unspent love or grace inside her.” 

Guided by this principle, she entered treatment with faith she could accept any outcome. As she underwent chemotherapy and radiation, she plunged into the mysteries and certainties of life and death. All of creation, nature and humanity, became fodder for her reflections about healing, time, hope, dreaming and loving.

The deeper she went, the more she realized she was already living the miracle she’d asked for. It was being revealed in every sacred moment of her life—she simply hadn’t always recognized it.

Life, she discovered, was radiant with the light of wisdom, the strong and gentle touch of caregiving, the gratitude for another breath and the surprise of all that was arising.

This Day Won’t Come Again began as a series of talks on hope and healing from a spiritual or radiant point of view. Tender and uplifting, it will encourage you to trust your own radiance and allow it to guide you into the unique meaning and purpose that is yours to share as you navigate treatment or caregiving for life-threatening illness.

This wise memoir reminds us time might be limited, but love is not; we might or might not be cured, but in the meantime, we have the opportunity to learn, to create and to love. It will provoke inspiring conversations about faith and hope, about endurance and loss, about treatment and everyday living, about relationships with others and with illness itself.

With its many insights into responsiveness without preconception, vision without assumption, contemplation without dogma, and more, this companion piece for radiant living and dying will be an indispensable resource for those who work with the ill and dying.
