About this listen

On April 24, 1996, Becky Olson was diagnosed with breast cancer.

Suddenly, the 43-year-old mother of five and highly successful businesswoman now stood at the crossroads between life and death.

Surviving arduous treatments and physical, mental, and emotional turmoil, Becky used the only weapon she had - her hat - to win the battle against the uninvited and overwhelming foe.

Based on her true story, The Hat That Saved My Life is an incredible tale of one woman’s loss and redemption - and the lessons she learned!

The audiobook version includes additional highlights of her four battles since her original story was released, ending with her current battle with stage four metastatic cancer in 2019.

It also includes a bonus musical track of a song never before released, called "Darling Becky", written and performed by Bill Olson.
