<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>With disarming honesty and wit, a stage IV cancer survivor weaves his love of golf with his battle with cancer. The result is a birdie-fest of wisdom and inspiration for confronting life's challenges.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>In 2015, shortly after his 50th birthday, Doug deGrood, an otherwise-healthy advertising executive and avid golfer was diagnosed with stage I bladder cancer which quickly progressed to stage IV. <em>The Right Side of the Fairway</em> chronicles his compelling journey while applying well-known principles of golf to living a better, healthier life. From "loosening your grip pressure" to "focusing on your short game," the approachable, metaphorical lessons deGrood shares are sure to appeal to golfers, but have meaning for non-golfers as well.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"DeGrood's cancer journey exemplifies my own personal mantra, Keep Swingin'. Anyone who's ever teed up a golf ball will find great inspiration and value in this book."</p><p>--Tim Herron, 4-time PGA Tour winner</p><p>"Doug deGrood has married two topics that I am very familiar with--golf and cancer. The Right Side of the Fairway is honest, uplifting, therapeutic and should be on the reading list for anyone who has received this unsettling diagnosis. Hole in one, Doug!"</p><p>--Harvey Mackay, author of the #1 New York Times bestseller Swim With The Sharks Without Being Eaten Alive</p><p>"This is one of the most poignant, insightful, witty and frank perspectives on dealing with cancer I have come across. This should be required reading not only for people faced with this life-threatening condition and their families, but also doctors, nurses and all others involved in supporting these courageous individuals (even the non-golfers)."</p><p>--Badrinath Konety, MD</p><p>"Doug deGrood writes as a mature believer--one who has learned that our faith doesn't promise that we'll never suffer but rather that suffering and challenges in life can ultimately bring us closer to God. In the end, the path to glory is the path of descent, knowing that God is with us every step of the way. And for that, the only appropriate response is gratitude."</p><p>--Fr. Michael Reding, Pastor, St. Thomas the Apostle</p><br>
