On a rainy April evening in 1993, a serial killer responding to a Craigslist ad for Heather Callahan's used car attacked her on the street in front of her Denver home and left her for dead. Heather didn't die. She refused to, thinking, as her blood pooled in the rain-soaked street: This is wrong. I am not going to die, not now, not this way. Heather not only survived in the aftermath of this terrible attack, she thrived, her indomitable spirit a testament to her physical, emotional, and psychological recovery. She came to understand this unexpected and powerful blossoming as Post Traumatic Growth. A Drop of Rain, her extraordinaire memoir, demonstrates in no uncertain terms that life doesn't stop when you become a victim. Indeed, she is living proof that the most horrific traumas we face may also, in the long run, be the most significant turning points in our lives.

When Molly McMaster receives an unheard-of diagnosis of colon cancer on her 23rd birthday, she finds that her worst fear isn't that she might die, but rather that she will become "that poor little sick girl." Instead, she chooses to answer back with creative, funny, sexy, and out-of-the-box ideas that inadvertently begin to change the view of this "old man's disease." This is no kumbaya cancer trip. Follow Molly as she generates national "colon" headlines by skating 2,000 miles across the country, building a giant colon, and helping to create The Colon Club, a national non-profit with the goal of raising awareness of colorectal cancer, especially in young people. An inspirational story of courage and overcoming the odds, this candid memoir is the ultimate story of how every rainstorm begins with just a single drop of rain. *A portion of the profit from every book sold will be given to the nonprofit The Colon Club to help further educational efforts.
