Wouldn't it be great if we could walk through life and shop for the things that would make it unforgettably beautiful.
Today more than ever...friends and family members say, "Wow...I guess we've reached the point where the body starts to fall apart." And when it happens it's completely natural to get mad at God. And yet he keeps loving you unconditionally.
What would you say if God took the hand of a willing student and taught him how prepare millions of men and women around the world how to prepare for cancer.

Pat Williams, senior VP of the NBA's Orlando Magic, is an extraordinary man. Considered one of America's top motivational speakers and leadership authors, he has completed 58 marathons in the last 13 years and climbed Mount Rainier. So when Pat was told in January 2011 that he had multiple myeloma, a rare and incurable blood cancer, giving up was not an option! Arming himself with faith, family and great doctors, Pat beat all the odds! His latest book, The Mission Is Remission (HCI Books) is an empowering resource for anyone facing a cancer diagnosis.

Pat makes a captivating guest. Please read the following press release and let me know if I may schedule an interview with one of the nation's most inspiring speakers. Thank you.
The Mission Is Remission: Kicking Cancer With Faith, Courage And A Fighting Spirit

"Pat Williams has generously opened up his life and taken us inside his cancer battle. In this book, he shows us how to face cancer with courage and a can-do attitude. He also shows us how to get the most out of life, even while battling cancer."
--from the foreword of The Mission Is Remission by Arnold Palmer

Deerfield Beach, FL, February 24, 2014 - Pat William's world changed on January 7, 2011. After a thorough physical checkup the words "everything looks good—except there's something in your blood work we're not sure about" were spoken and Pat was diagnosed with a rare and incurable blood cancer, multiple myeloma.

Up until then, Pat Williams had achieved some impressive numbers in the scoreboard of his own life: he's run 58 marathons, is the father of 19 children, and has lead 23 teams to the NBA playoffs, taking the Philadelphia 76ers and the Orlando Magic to the finals five times. Now he had become one of the millions of people experiencing cancer.

Williams called on his faith and fighting spirit and his mantra became "The mission is remission." After a stem cell treatment and rounds of chemotherapy, he succeeded in the fight of his life: the myeloma can no longer be detected.

Williams shares his story and the six essential healing factors that helped him win his battle. He reveals how he was buoyed by faith, family, and a different kind of defensive team--his doctors. With pragmatic and motivating tips, plus advice from other cancer survivors, The Mission Is Remission will be an empowering resource for anyone facing a cancer diagnosis. Today, in addition to his work with the Orlando Magic, Pat spends many hours on the board of the Multiple Myeloma Research Foundation, responding to emails and taking calls from others affected by cancer. He is a master motivator, change agent, and champion at heart; this is his rallying cry to inspire, educate, and lead others on to victory.

Having worked with Pat Williams on a number of books published by HCI, I can promise you that he is one of the most favored and called-back authors - from the sports jockey to faith-based journalists to the national TV talk show circuit and more. I invite you to get to know this remarkable man who has written about many popular heroes but finally discusses the most personal story of all--how he must now be the hero in his own life.
