Buda, TX, September 03, 2026 --(PR.com)-- Tracy Neil West, RN, BSN has completed a new book, titled, "Alone Across the Skybridge: A Nurse's Cancer Journey," which documents his encounter with stage 4 diffuse large B cell lymphoma beginning in December 2020. Woven together from Facebook journal entries, backstories, and photographs spanning from diagnosis through the intense chemotherapy treatments and into recovery by December 2021, this account captures both the physical ravages and emotional complexities of fighting a life-threatening illness during unprecedented times.

With over thirty years as a dedicated registered nurse, West brings a distinctive perspective to his cancer narrative. His extensive career in geriatric and long-term care nursing—serving in roles from bedside caregiver to Director of Nurses to State Regulatory Surveyor—positioned him uniquely to witness healthcare's systemic challenges firsthand. When West himself became a patient during the COVID-19 crisis, he experienced firsthand the very industry he had spent decades serving, gaining insights that would reshape his understanding of vulnerability, resilience, and patient dignity.

"Alone Across the Skybridge" reveals how West's cancer journey transcended mere physical survival, becoming instead a catalyst for profound spiritual awakening. Through candid storytelling interwoven with humor and unflinching honesty, West demonstrates how divine providence manifested throughout his battle with lymphoma. Readers will discover how faith, determination, and grace sustained him through debilitating treatments while also uncovering uncomfortable truths about contemporary healthcare practices. West's testimony illustrates God's intricate design woven throughout suffering, showing how even the darkest valleys can become pathways to transformation.

"This journey taught me that our greatest vulnerabilities often become our greatest strengths," said the author. "By sharing my story, I hope to encourage others facing their own battles and to challenge our healthcare system toward greater compassion."
