An excerpt from 'Journey to Return to A Well-Deserved Glory'
"Courage, resilience, strength, determination...these are all words which describe Janet Atwell.
Being diagnosed with breast cancer in 2013 may have temporarily derailed her professional pool playing career, but it was just that - temporary! There's no holding Janet back. She's a wonderfully pleasant, and very inspirational woman! Be inspired...watch Janet in this episode of '14 Days - The Great Pool Experiment.' We call this, 'A Journey to Return to A Well-Deserved Glory.' Janet, besides being a wonderful person, has an attitude about life from which we could all learn, and her faith is unshakable.
She has earned and deserves every achievement from her past and every achievement she will enjoy in her future!"
