Overview

Atย age 18, Joey Slunisky is excited for the future. With a sharp mind and plenty of ambition, he canโ€™t wait to start college and put himself on the path for his dream career in nuclear and metallurgical engineering.

Then, like a bolt out of the blue comes a shocking diagnosis: cancer. With that one word, Joey feels like his whole world is coming to an end. His first reaction is disbelief, followed by anger, fear, and depression. The deforming cancer surgery cuts out half his throat and left shoulder muscles. The repulsive image takes its toll on his body and his spirit, and all he wants to do is withdraw from the world. But thanks to Godโ€™s blessings of the support of a loving family and friends, as well as the intervention of a skilled and caring doctor, Joey is able to heal both physically and mentally. After a few months, he starts college with his ambitions back on track.

Unrelentingly, life hurls overwhelming obstacles in Joeyโ€™s path. Repeatedly the cancer rears its ugly head. Every time Joey moves two steps forward, a new cancer diagnosis drags him one step back. Again, the wise and kindly Dr. Saabs intercedes to help keep Joeyโ€™s demons at bay. Joey begins to understand that his attitude, even more so than his physical challenges, will determine his future.

With a never-give-up attitude, Joey embarks on a positive start to his career. He finds the love of his life and then parlays a position from a student metallurgist program into an attractive job offer as a metallurgical engineer. Itโ€™s a promising start for a young engineer, but Joey has his eyes on a bigger prize. Despite continuous health problems and countless setbacks, Joey never lets go of a professional dream that can be summed up in two words: Oak Ridge.

This inspiring story of a young man who has his life sidelined time and time again shows that while we canโ€™t always control the things that happen to us, we can control how we respond. The type of life we have is dependent upon our frame of mind.
