"You have three, maybe six months to live, said the neurosurgeon." Jim and Victoria were a newly married couple; he a former U.S. Marine Lieutenant Colonel and avid surfer, she a devotee of yoga, meditation and personal spiritual development. Together, they were determined to beat Jim's stage IV brain cancer. Following the failure of chemotherapy and radiation, with no other viable options, they explored and ultimately embraced alternative healing methods, including the Burzynski treatment. This is their successful journey infused with humor, patient advocacy, thoughts on caretaking, the mind-body connection and creating one's reality. An empowering account for anyone searching for inspiration in overcoming cancer.
