520    By all standards of success, James Templeton seemed to 
       have it all. He was a highly successful businessman, had a
       beautiful wife and daughter, and, only in his early 
       thirties, had his whole life in front of him. To avoid the
       same fate as his father and grandfather, who both died of 
       heart attacks at a young age, James became an avid runner-
       -a passion that he believed helped him stay fit and 
       healthy. Imagine his shock when, during a routine physical,
       his doctor noticed a mole on his body that turned out to 
       be a melanoma--a dangerous form of skin cancer. The mole 
       was removed immediately and James, who was diligent in his
       follow-up exams, appeared to be cancer-free--but only for 
       a short while. When the cancer reappeared and had spread, 
       on the advice of his doctor, James followed the 
       conventional medical protocol, which included surgery and 
       chemotherapy. He was also involved in a clinical trial. 
       When he learned that the treatments weren't working, James
       was obviously devastated. He had reached a new low point 
       in his life, and as he lay in the hospital bed, he prayed 
       fervently for help. As if by some miracle, help came to 
       James in the form of three different visitors who would 
       change the course of his life--and help direct him on a 
       path back to health. I Used to Have Cancer is James 
       Templeton's memoir--an inspiring look back at his unique 
       journey in overcoming stage 4 melanoma. James takes you 
       with him on a trip crisscrossing America, during which he 
       shares the various natural approaches he followed to 
       battle his cancer--from diet and supplements to meditation
       and lifestyle adjustments. As his journey continued, you 
       will see first-hand how James' definition of success 
       changed from making money to seeing the next sunrise. And 
       how he continues finding success by reaching out to others
       to share the lessons he has learned. While this book 
       largely focuses on the various methods James used to 
       overcome his own cancer, it is also an inspiring story of 
       not giving up when all other avenues of conventional 
       medicine fail. It is about taking control of your life and
       finding a way back from the brink of death. It is about 
       being able to tell your friends, "I used to have cancer."
