Am I going to die?
This is the first question Betty Jean Aucoin asks when diagnosed with recurrent stage IV breast cancer.
No, her doctors tell her. But your journey ahead will be one without a cure at this time.
Over the past twenty-five years, there has been a significant increase in the diagnosis of cancer and chronic pain. Almost everyone has either been diagnosed or knows someone who has been. Conventional treatment plans have primarily focused on using drugs to combat and reverse cancer and chronic pain. However, many of these medications come with serious side effects and do not address patients' holistic needs involving the mind, body, heart, and spirit.
When Betty Jean was diagnosed with breast cancer for a second time, she realized she needed to explore additional options beyond her medications. Determined to find a way to reverse her diagnosis, she began researching a multi-faceted approach to healing.
This is the story of her remarkable journey - an engaging and informative blend of memoir and self-help that emphasizes the importance of an integrative approach to cancer treatment and overall well-being. Topics include healthy eating, exercise, self-care, mindfulness, travel, and the support of family and friends. Each piece of advice is made practical and personal, grounded in the author's study of healing practices.
You can thrive while living life over cancer!
