Fourth and Inches Barbara Dooley

"This book offers help and hope to cancer patients and their families through laughter and humor presented in the context of sports and sports analogies." Vince Dooley, Speaker, Author, Coach

A positive and uplifting chronicle of two friends and their individual experiences with breast cancer. Both women are deeply in love with football and have framed their encouragements within football and sports jargon with a special twist to appeal to women and men, young and old alike! Barbara Dooley is the wife of legendary University of Georgia head football coach and athletic director, Vince Dooley, who coached Hershel Walker, among others, to the 1980 NCAA National Football Championship. She is a writer, speaker, and radio personality. As a Journalism major and member of the University of Georgia's famed Redcoat Marching Band during the same Championship era, Debbie Crowe fully appreciates the dominance and importance of college football then and now. She is also a motivational speaker and leader. Barbara and Debbie offer a poignant and, often, downright funny glimpse into the reality of cancer diagnosis and treatment and suggest practical coping suggestions for patients, caregivers, and friends.
