an amazing storyteller with an amazing story.
I received an email about the success of her battle with cancer - 17 year survivor from stage 4 breast cancer, the secrets she kept, the fight she had, the scare of the return and the changes she made in her life....
Although I have only started with her journey she is such an easy read - love success stories!
Here's the lowdown -
"The Red Devil: to Hell with Cancer - and Back" first entitled "Chemosabe" In this book she shares with us when she was told that she had one or two years left - she didn't want a blow out trip to the Galapagos, no perfect meal at Alain Ducasse, no defiant red Maserati.....all she wanted was ordinary life back because it became clear that ordinary life was more valuable than anything else.
"Dreaming in Hindi" her adventure in India............ teaching us that in Hindi -night doesn't fall , it spreads; when you sunbathe, you eat the sun; the word for yesterday and tomorrow are the same telling us that it is only when you are in today that you are here, when you are in yesterday or tomorrow you are in blackness. You can take the trip with her!
So you know what I will be doing - reading these books - but which first?!!!
Just had to share!
