Grown Men Don'T Cry

Throughout his childhood and during his twenty years of professional service in the New Zealand Army, author Michael J. Roberts repeatedly heard a message: grown men dont cry. To cope with lifes ups and downs, Roberts put on a mask and effectively concealed his emotions behind itthat is, until he was diagnosed with cancer. In Grown Men Dont Cry, Roberts shares his story and describes how he found inner peace by allowing himself to cry and by turning to be Jesus to be saved. This memoir narrates his personal journey as he faced recovery from a major operation, the fight against late stage-three cancer, radiation, and chemotherapy and ensuing depression. He tells how through these challenges and despair he found hope and God. A story about one mans triumph over great odds and the fear of death, Grown Men Dont Cry shows that no matter the despair or the pain, one must always have hope.
