This book was one of the most helpful books I have ever read since I developed Ovarian Cancer 6 years ago, and I have read many ! The odds for beating ovarian cancer the coventional way alone is very rare, OVCA is one of the deadliest cancers there is ! I believe there would be MANY more survivors of ALL types of cancer if we followed what Chris Bledy did. She is amazing. She has given me renewed hope! Good luck to you all!

Chris Bledy's 'Beating Ovarian Cancer' is an inpiration to all who have been faced with a cancer diagnosis. After being diagnosed with Stage 3 Ovarian Cancer I found myself being uplifted by the authors words. Other books only gave me grim statistics and scenarios that left me worried and depressed. Chris Bledy gave me the hope I needed to hear and many practical suggestions on how to cope with this illness and dare to believe that I can beat it. I find myself referring to it over and over again like a helpful friend as I move along my road to recovery. She really shows you how to 'reclaim your life' and not let this diagnosis take it over. I can't thank her enough for writing this book. Olga Nugara Toronto, Canada.

Courageous Story of How One Woman Faced "The Silent Killer" by Rick Rodgers (Lancaster, PA USA)

Image that you're seeing your doctor for what you think is a routine exam. Perhaps you believe your symptoms are nothing more than the beginning of menopause. Certainly nothing serious. You live a healthy lifestyle. You're not overweight. You exercise regularly and are not working in a high stress job. Only a week later you find out you have ovarian cancer. Ovarian cancer has a high mortality rate because it is often not diagnosed until it is in the late stages. Even though aggressive treatment might temporarily remove all the cancer cells, recurrence is nearly inevitable. How can you not feel like you've been handed a death sentence? What do you do to keep yourself from losing hope? Chris Bledy has written a marvelous book about her incredible battle with ovarian cancer. Originally diagnosed in 2000, her cancer returned in a few short years and she faced another round of surgeries and chemotherapy. How she pulled her life together and took control of her health and her life is an inspirational story that everyone can learn from. I would certainly recommend this book to anyone that is battling cancer or has a loved one facing cancer. But this book is also a good template for learning how to cope with any of the difficulties life throws our way. I think you will be inspired by the way Chris went about educating herself about her disease and then purposely making changes in her life to improve her chances of survival. -- Rick Rodgers, CFP®, author of The New Three-Legged Stool: A Tax Efficient Approach to Retirement Planning

This book is 'not' just for people with cancer, it is for everyone who want to become present in their lives. It is about loving your whole self. We go through life on auto pilot at times, and do not realize the impact it has on our whole being. Chris takes you on a complete journey on what becoming present in your life looks like.
