In "A Day of Celebration," a woman cares for her husband who is battling cancer.

She struggles to find foods that he can tolerate after chemotherapy has destroyed his appetite. As she experiments with different recipes and supplements, she discovers a whole new world of alternative treatments. The couple's relationship with their oncologist deteriorates, and they move away from mainstream medical options. Despite the costs and the toll it takes on her, she perseveres, taking things one day at a time.

In this heartwarming story, the woman finds hope and joy in the small victories, even as she faces the reality of her husband's illness.

When a loved one lives with sickness, in most cases, those closest are the ones suffering more. In silence. We stand by as treatment fails. We witness how our beloved partner, child, parent dwindles to a shadow. Hope slowly ebbs from our bones. But sometimes, hope flows back. Sometimes, the promise of being whole, happy and alive again, nudges us forward. And that's what happened to Sarah when she received a life-changing phone call.

Read this story, loosely based on real events, of just such a 'sometimes'.
