My Beautiful Life by Mina Dobic
Biography: Born in Yugoslavia, Mina spent the first 40 years of her life there, working first as a teacher and later in the media. At this point in her career, exhausted and run down she was diagnosed with cancer and given two months to live. Mina decided against the traditional route of chemotherapy and checking herself out of the hospital embarked on a journey into Macrobiotics - a special diet but also a philosophy and way of life. A year later she was free of the cancer and healthier than ever. Mina now lives in California with her husband and two children where she continues to practice and teach Macrobiotics. A fascinating and inspiring story for the time we live in. In the last week two people I know passed away from cancer.... Mina's book definitely gave me something to think about.
