Approx. 11 Hours • Unabridged Copyright © 2015 by Joan Lunden READ BY THE AUTHOR Had I Known, the former host of Good Morning America, health advocate, In international speaker, mother of seven, grandmother of two, and New York Times bestselling author Joan Lunden speaks candidly about her battle against breast cancer, her quest to learn about it and teach others, and the transformative effect it has had on her life. With a large extended family counting on her, giving up was not an option. After Joan announced her diagnosis of Stage 2 Triple Negative Breast Cancer on Good Morning America, people all over the country rallied around her as she went into warrior mode. Joan appeared on the cover of People magazine bald, showing the world her brave resolve and that breast cancer does not need to define you. Joan’s illness has changed her in profoundly unexpected ways and has redefined her values—and, most of all, her health. Following a new clean and healthy way of eating, Joan became her own best advocate by taking control of her nutrition, which helped combat the adverse side effects of chemotherapy. Uncharacteristically vulnerable, irreverent, and straight from the heart, Had I Known is a deeply personal and powerful story of pain, persistence, and perseverance in which Joan openly evaluates her decision to go public with her battle, involving shaving her head, wig shopping, reconnecting with her viewers, rediscovering her purpose, and ultimately realizing that sometimes you have to look back to move forward. JOAN LUNDEN was the co-host of Good Morning America for nearly two decades, bringing insight to the day’s top stories, from presidential elections to health and wellness. Her bestselling books include Joan Lunden’s Healthy Cooking, Joan Lunden’s Healthy Living, Wake-Up Calls, and A Bend in the Road Is Not the End of the Road. Joan speaks all over the country about health and wellness, inspiration, and success. Her online TV channel created for the breast cancer community, ALIVE with Joan Lunden (AliveWithJoan.com), and her website, JoanLunden.com, have quickly become go-to sources of information, bringing together experts on a myriad of relevant topics for today’s woman. In October 2014, Joan joined NBC’s Today show as a Special Correspondent for Breast Cancer Awareness. LAURA MORTON is the author of more than forty books, including nineteen New York Times bestsellers. She has worked with Susan Lucci, Al Roker, Melissa Etheridge, Sandra Lee, and Justin Bieber, among many others. Running Time: Approx. 11 Hours • Unabridged Copyright © 2015 by Joan Lunden.

    VOLUME 6 • ISSUE 1 • WINTER 2017 MAGAZINE Celebrating the Spirit® I LIVE IT Ruth Frost Parker Center PAGE 2 UCH: for Abundant Aging: A Learning and Teaching An Inspiring Start Organization PAGE 4 PAGE 6 Bill & Helen Swank: Educational Pioneers PAGE 14 A WORD FROM THE CEO A Thought Leader on Aging Friday, November 11, 2016, was a significant date in the history of United Church Homes. It was the day when we officially launched the Ruth Frost Parker Center for Abundant Aging. Nearly 200 people from all around Ohio representing such diverse fields as healthcare, nursing, management, education, research, pastoral care, and social work attended the event. Our intent was to initiate a discussion to change the perception of aging in America. Award-winning journalist and former Good Morning America host Joan Lunden served as our keynote presenter. What began as a way for UCH to recognize and honor the memory of Ruth Frost Parker, the visionary leader who holds the distinction of being the single most generous benefactor in our 100 years of service, came to fruition that day. Joan’s prepared comments captured the essence of what we’re striving to accomplish with our ministry: to transform the idea of what it means to age, and to celebrate growing old as a time of abundance, personal achievement, meaning, and importance. I do not think we could have selected a more compelling speaker. Rev. Kenneth Daniel President and CEO Joan’s personal journey as a daughter, sister, mother, and grandmother and, perhaps most poignantly, as a caregiver for her mother and brother as their health declined, captured the attendees’ attention and imagination in ways we could have only dreamed of.
