Night Reflections ─ A True Story of Friendship, Love, Cancer, and Survival

Life was great for Dr. Robert Winn, medical director of Deer Valley and The Canyons in Park City, and his wife Nancy. But when, seemingly out of the blue, Nancy was diagnosed with an aggressive form of Leukemia, their world went tumbling and careening out of control. Because Dr. Winn could not speak of Nancy's illness without beginning to cry, he started the daily ritual of sending emails to friends and family to provide updates on Nancy's condition. An elegant and introspective writer, and medical expert, these letters have been compiled and edited to create an inspirational story of treatment, courage, love, devotion, struggles, and ultimately triumph over this deadly disease. A story that will help cancer victims, their loved ones, caregivers, and the medical community alike find the courage fight the deadly disease of cancer.

DR. ROBERT T. WINN is the long-serving Medical Director for the Deer Valley Ski and Park City Ski resorts in Utah. In this capacity he administrates and sets policy for the on-mountain clinics that care for thou- sands of guests from around the world each year. For over twenty years he also served as the Medical Director at the Old Faithful clinic in Yellowstone National Park, the world’s first national park created in 1872. Dr. Winn’s writing career is a direct outgrowth of his many years as a “teacher.” Indispensably, he continues to enjoy showing students how to provide medical care like an “old time country doctor.”
