Hard knocks give Rolheiser appreciation of life

Spiritual writer and Catholic Register columnist Fr. Ron Rolheiser has a greater appreciation for life since a bout with cancer. Living cancer-free now, Rolheiser said he has “never appreciated life more.”

TORONTO – Fr. Ron Rolheiser’s next book will be about death. 

Five years ago the popular newspaper columnist, book author, theologian and university administrator was diagnosed with colon cancer. It was caught early. A six-month round of chemotherapy seemed to knock it out. But two years ago it came back. Now there are chemo pills every day and check-ups every six months.
