Healing a joy without chemo or radiation
by Aiyana Stern
3 weeks after surgery, happily with supportive friends Bill, you asked for stories. About four years ago, I was diagnosed with endrometrial cancer, and immersed myself in many natural ways of healing -- qui gong, organic diet, holistic health coach, acupuncture, positive psychotherapy, energy healing, visualization, herbs and supplements, with the help of holistic healers. One of the first things I did after receiving the diagnosis was to subscribe to your newsletter, for support and an expectation of full and gentle healing. I did have a simple hysterectomy to help the healing, but no chemo, radiation, or even anti-biotics after surgery. The experience of healing from cancer was a catalyst for all kinds of positive changes in my life -- becoming more in touch with my feelings, more assertive and intuitive about what I need to be healthy. Needless to say, cancer is not now in my life. I wouldn't have missed the experience, though the surgery was hard on my body. I want to share my experience with others - that a diagnosis can be seen as a door opening in your life. |
