In the summer of 2013, Lawrence Crowder Davis and his wife Joanna were having the time of their lives. Blessed with grandchildren, great friends, and a solid marriage, things seemed as though they couldn't possibly get any better-but all it took was one diagnosis, and they suddenly became much, much worse.
For two hundred days, Davis's life was plunged into darkness as he battled a formidable enemy: squamous cell carcinoma of the neck. Through months of testing and treatments, his existence became a desperate struggle for survival. But with the love of his life by his side, he managed to find his way back to the light.
An eye-opening first-person account of cancer diagnosis and treatment, The End of Night is an inspirational true story guiding readers on a walk through the darkness of despair, pain, and addiction-a journey that left one man both cured of cancer and cured by cancer, aided by the strength and kindness of others along the way.
About the Author: Lawrence Crowder Davis earned his bachelor's degree in marketing from Miami University, an experience that was interrupted by four years of service in the US Marine Corps and a deployment to Vietnam.
Since then, Davis has opened two of his own companies-the printer ribbon manufacturing firm Wordata in 1979, and Perfect Network, a marketing company for office consumables, in 1992.
As a cancer survivor, Davis currently lives in Wilmington, North Carolina, with his wife, Joanna. The couple has three grown children, three granddaughters, and one grandson.
